Clos de l'Oratoire 1998 (75 CL)

Pale to medium brick in color, the 1998 Clos de l'Oratoire has an earthy / meaty nose with a delicate core of cranberry sauce, dried mulberries, oolong tea and cigar box. Medium-bodied and elegantly styled in the mouth, the earth laced red fruits have a chewy frame and give a refreshingly savory finish. (LP, 3/2018)
