The 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix is a firm, tannic effort offering scents of pine trees, balsam wood, resin, and black cherry and berry fruit. Earthy and firm, with moderate tannin, it will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring, and should keep for 14+ years. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel (510) 524-1524
