Estimate
Toasty and oaky in style, but it has plenty of ripe fruit and lovely, supple tannins along with good black fruit notes. Tannins do clamp down on the firm finish, but it should soften with some cellaring.
...Big, dense, sweet and mouthfilling. Huge for the vintage but stubbornly unevolved. Still, this presents itself as more open today and lower in acidity than the '98 Méo Camuzet Vosne-Romanée Cros Parantoux...
