Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2000
An explosively rich, full-bodied, concentrated 1998, this dynamite l'Eglise-Clinet boasts a saturated purple color in addition to a glorious bouquet of cherry liqueur, black raspberries, and blackberries, an unctuous texture, opulent personality, low acidity, and powerful, moderately tannic, hugely concentrated flavors. This impressive, large-scaled, backward, unevolved effort requires patience. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2030.

Truly gorgeous. Rich and thick yet refined and precise. Crushed raspberry and berry character rises from the glass. Full-bodied, with loads of fruit, fine tannins and an extremely long finish. Best after 2010. 1,085 cases made. –JS
