Dark ruby in colour - quite youthful looking for its age. Aromas of cedar and berry. Medium bodied. Quite cool flavours for a hot vintage from this Crus Bourgeois from the left bank. I would normally prefer an Aussie Cabernet to have with a steak and still do but this was acceptable if not a bit simple. Drinks to its price point.

Fresh raspberry, plasticine, rounded pluminess with a light blood-like note. No signs of excessive heat. A little under in the mid palate, but very approachable and quite primary.

This ‘03 is drinking great! Rich red currant and cherry fruit, beautiful underlying graphite, well-integrated chalky tannins and great balance.

If there’s a better/more value driven wine coming out of this part of Bordeaux, I’d love to hear it, because I always love this stuff. From a halfie and still incredibly youthful. Roasted plum, currant, saddle leather & herbal spice. No problem holding, even in this format!

Friggin' d luscious. Tasted blind and thought it was Napa. 2003 Bordeaux makes sense based on the ripeness levels.

This wine is in its drinking window...lead pencil, forest floor and balanced fruit and tannins

45+ minute decant, but needs more like 2 hours for some of the harshness to dissipate. Mild nose with more fruit than the terroir I was expecting. Wine lacks depth and character. That being said it goes down like velvet and has a medium plus finish. The early harshness is a turn off and I think my expectations were too high. Not bad, but probably won’t try again.

16.5/20 (90/100) Третичные ароматы на первом плане - скотный двор, кожа, чёрный перец, вяленая вишня. Довольно высокие тельность и кислотность, бархатистые танины. Во вкусе доминируют красные спелые ягоды - создаёт контраст с ароматом. #dfwe2018
