1998 Paulliac and Pomerol

Oct 01, 2004 1 Replies

Does anyone have any idea how the 1998's are expected to develop? Laithwaites (UK mail order merchant) has Paulliac Lacoste-Borie and Pomerol L'Enclos Haut Mazeyres at £15 a bottle, which looks good at UK prices if the vintage is promising. I am unfamiliar with both producers, but I am predominantly a "Penfoldsista" and consumer of Southern hemisphere wines, so that is no surprise. TIA for any advice or alternative recommendations.

Right Bank 98s are IMHO (and most people's opinions) far better than leftbank. There are some good Medocs, but far more good Pomerols and St. Emilions. I haven't had either wine, but at that price I'd buy the Pomerol. If interested in the Pauillac, buy one to try. Dale
