Score 90/100 · Drink 2000-2010, Robert Parker, Aug 2000

The outstanding 1998 Fobiano is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in new French oak casks, and bottled with neither fining nor filtration. A dense opaque purple color is accompanied by notes of new saddle leather, blackberry liqueur, smoke, and licorice. An opulently-textured wine with medium to full body, a chewy, lush mid-palate, and outstanding purity and ripeness, it can be drunk now as well as over the next decade. A Leonardo Locascio Selection, Winebow, Hohokus, NJ; tel. (201) 445-0620
