CHÂTEAU LE TERTRE ROTEBOEUF 1998 (2)

Saint-Émilion. Grand Cru Classé
u. 2 x bn. 1 x scraped label.

A dramatic, flamboyant nose of roasted espresso intermixed with chocolate fudge, blackberries, Asian spices, and kirsch jumps from the glass of this ostentatious effort. Full-bodied and layered, with an unctuous texture, gorgeous purity, and an undeniable hedonistic explosion of fruit and glycerin, it can be drunk now, or cellared for 15+ years. To my taste, it is the finest Le Tertre-Roteboeuf since 1990. But watch out for the 2000! April 2001 WA 94
