Chateau St. Jean Cinq Cépages 1998

Sonoma County, California, United StatesHuge olive green bean nose with smoky cherry cola and coffee in the background. Tastes like it smells with a little sweaty leather. Elegant style but hollow mid-palate and dry tannins in the oaky finish. Maybe they shouldn't have made this wine in 1998.Tasted: 01 March 2001Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
