1998 Parker Terra Coonawarra Estate Terra Rossa First Growth Cabernet Sauvignon 750ML
Selling 36 bottles of 1998 Parker Terra Coonawarra Estate Terra Rossa First Growth Cabernet Sauvignon 750ML.
The 1998 Terra Rosa First Growth offers a ruby/purple color as well as a classic bouquet of black currants, cedar, and high class French oak. If Jean-Michel Cazes (the proprietor of Lynch Bages) was making wine in Australia, this is what it would taste like - deep and full-bodied, with attractively integrated acidity, tannin, and alcohol.
Anticipated maturity: 2003-2020. Sadly, there are only 1,500 cases, since only 5% of the estate's fruit is used for this cuvee.
Dark, dense red; the bouquet exudes ripe Blackberry and chocolate aromas, with no green characters whatsoever. The palate is similarly dense and ripe (not jammy) with the flavours promised by the bouquet; fine tannins and good oak handling round off a classy wine.
In 2011, these wine connoisseurs graded this wine as follows:
(i) Robert Parker Junior rated at 95 - 97 points. "An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety. wines of this caliber are worth a special effort to find, purchase, and consume."

(iii) James Halliday rated at 86 points. "Very good wine; clear varietal definition/style; silver verging on gold medal standard."
