Wine Advocate #134(4/2001)Rating: 84points Drink: 2001-2011
Dark ruby-colored with a purple edge, this slightly herbaceous, medium-bodied, light-styled 1998 offers attractive aromas and flavors, but it lacks depth and length. Drink it over the next 7-10 years. –Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (1/31/ 2001) Score: 79
Hard to get excited about. Medium-bodied, with berry character, but rather weedy and funky. Not as good as from barrel. 26,000 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating：
Very tight black fruit nose with some chocolate, smoke and tar. Wonderfully silky fruit with great complexity and smoky depth on the palate. Lots of black fruit and elegance on its lengh.
