Smooth as silk and maybe a bit past mid-life but absolutely perfect with wild boar pasta.

A great wine in a shit vintage. Just goes to show what a great winemaker can do.

Typical of the vintage, but still very pleasant to drink. Dried dark fruit and herbs. Intense, but not just one note of ripe fruit here.

2003 vintage. Fantastic, otherworldly nose. Still plenty of push/substance and plenty of great drinking ahead. Courtesy of @Bill Bender

What a beauty. Nothing over the top despite the vintage. Has aged like a dream.

Quite tasty. Lightly smoky, earthy nose. Cherries on the palate, mushroom plus leathery-oaky notes. Tannic grip was good, as was its acidity. 2003 was the hot year in Europe, I wouldn't call this cooked or stewed. Glad I drank it now. Day 2&3 a bit more compact, but the tannins and lip-smacking cherry palate were still good.
