Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (RP91-93 points) Rated, no tasting note given.
Neal Martin's Wine Journal, 90 points: (NM89-90 points) Dense blackcurrant tarry nose. Palate is quite austere with cassis and liquorish fruit. Medium-bodied with firm tannins. Very structured, I am quite impressed with this wine. Tougher than 97. Retasted at...
Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages, 91 points: Very vibrant deep crimson. Sweet, rather beguiling nose - aromatically intense. Very gentle palate with real delicacy and life. Neat finish. Great balance. A real success for this vintage. 17.5/20
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The oak, vanilla, toast, acacia blossom, and creme brulee-scented 1998 Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese Nouvelle Vague Number 9 is an intensely sweet, fat, and candied wine. Full-bodied and powerful, this is a dense (yet...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The 1998 Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese Zwischen den Seen Number 11 has a yellow color with golden hues. It exhibits white peach, apricot, smoke, botrytis and freshly cracked white pepper aromas. Medium to...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: Interesting and ageworthy is the Hermitage Chevalier de Sterimberg, a blend of 50% Roussanne and 50% Marsanne, that is encouraged to go through malolactic fermentation. The fat 1998 Hermitage Chevalier de Sterimberg...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: (WA89-92 points) Latour's medium to full-bodied Bienvenue-Batard-Montrachet's aromatic and flavor intensity leave little doubt to its quality. Brandishing scents of well-ripened yellow fruits and minerals, this deep...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The 1998 Muskat-Ottonel Trockenbeerenauslese Zwischen den Seen Number 5 displays kumquat and candied apricot aromas. Fat jellied oranges explode on the palate and appear to transform themselves into elegant orange...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The exquisite 1998 Banyuls Terra Vinya was produced from 90-year old Carignan vines with a touch of Grenache included. Yields were a minuscule 10 hectoliters per hectare. It offers a big, smoky, chocolatey, black cherry...
Wine Spectator, 90 points: Pretty with loads of berry and Indian spices on the nose. Full-bodied with silky tannins and a long long finish. Best after 2006. 3050 cases made. –JS
