Incredible nose of crushed berry, licorice, violets and lightly toasted oak. Pure creme de cassis. Full-bodied, with big, velvety tannins and a long, long finish. Solid... Wine Spectator

Weedy. Fruit emerges with time. Cassis. Earth. Very astringent

The producers I drink don’t have bad vintages.

Acts half its age, fresh as a daisy which is something to admire in this vintage. Easily another 20 years here. Probably much better in 5 years.

Sorry, no love for '03 in this region from me. Pruny and lacking in acid.

Delicious combination of savory and ripe fruit flavors- really lovely integration- the plush tannins and so little greenness may be the clue it is from 2003

Very 2003. Plush, leaning a touch overripe for my palate, but still well-managed. On the nose: dense black fruit, with loads of plum. Lovely density, weight and acidity. Comes off more elegant on the palate. Softer tannin than expected on the finish, but maybe it was just covered up by ripe fruit.

Beautiful wine, fruit, alcohol, subtle chalk and incredibly balanced, just kept getting better and better, went really well with the fois and duck. Really getting into 2003 Bordeauxs
