Comparing to 99, 00, 01, and 04 (so far these are the vintages that i have tasted), though drinkable, this 98 is less enjoyable, more bretty, less elegant, more black than red, shorter, less intensity. Consistently so after drinking 4 bottles over the past few months.

Quite a full body wine. Pure and delicious, tropical fruits sucha s star fruit on the nose with mineral and light touch of oxidation. Palate is full, smooth and complex with pleasant sweetness back up by quite lively acidity. Wonderful!

Nose is okay but no acid, no bone, just sweetness.
