The excellent 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon is an exceptional effort in this irregular vintage. It offers sweet cassis fruit, smoke, cedar, and spice aromas as well as flavors. Medium to full-bodied, pure, with an open-knit texture in addition to an expansive, ripe taste and finish, it is not a huge effort, but there is good depth. Drink it over the next 14-15 years.
