Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste--Vintage 1998
Pauillac, 5me cru classé
Tasting note: The 1998 reveals a classic crême de cassis-scented nose along with powerful, tight, firmly-structured flavours. While moderate tannin is present, there is more than enough extract and depth behind the tannin to support the enthusiastic rating. However, this wine needs 3-4 more years of cellaring, and should keep for 16-18 years. This is a top-flight claret. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 134, (Apr 2001)
