Decanted 90 minutes. Shows some nice secondary development on the nose, even though this is still dominated by the ripe dark fruit of 2003. Enjoyable in the context of the vintage, and more complex than most New World wines of similar age and price. Glad to drink this but would not buy more as prefer a more typical profile for this wine.

THICC burgundy with some weight. Good but not great. I was looking for more complexity and length.

PNP. A bit roasted and all around felt like this was fading. Not my favorite and had much better from this producer in 01 and 02. B
