2003 is still 10+ years young. Plenty of tannins from both oak and fruit, and gobs of ripe black fruit. A "manly" wine and has some metalicism, iron, plums, blackberries, violets, and pepper.

I've been using Coravin on these. They are insanely pretty wines. I've had bottles of each previously and they are consistently great. A week after opening the 99 Janet it was just as terrific - thanks to Coravin

Great wine but a bit out of sync when compared to better vintages of chave heritage blanc. Still a deep and rich wine like you'd expect but maybe the hot vintage and high alcohol throws it off.

Very almond and some wax - the hot vintage comes through - with less structure and linearity than expected. Tho pleasurable
