Chateau Haut-Gravet Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 1998 full and sweet89pts Robert Parker Wine Advocate (Robertparker. com) "This appears to be a potential sleeper of the vintage. It is an abundantly fruity, glycerin imbued, medium bodied wine with surprising elegance for its fruit driven personality. There is plenty of black raspberry and jammy cherry fruit intermixed with subtle new oak. It possesses low acidity, well integrated moderate tannin, a seamless personality, and a surprisingly fine, concentrated finish.
