The 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape possesses structure and tannin, as well as fine accessibility. An evolved dark plum/garnet color is followed by an intriguing nose of roasted herbs, meat juices, cherry liqueur, and plums. Medium to full-bodied, with an excellent mid-palate, a nicely-layered texture, and a succulent, fleshy finish, it will drink well for 12-14 years.
