  October 10, 2017 - Nose a bit shy, entry a bit oxidized, but the finish is full, ripe and satisfying...and structured. Probably just a bit over the hill but pleasant enough. Drink up.

  October 5, 2017 - Tour Haut Caussan 2003 is just beginning...
  
  Nog steeds erg donker van kleur, direct vanille, kers, amarene.
  Zeer krachtige aanzet, direct waarneembare tannines. Lange, iets alcoholische afdronk. Cedar, Raisins, Figs
  
  Mijn proefnotities zijn al jaren achtereen zeer positief, ook over andere jaargangen!
  
  Very, Very Good

  June 5, 2012 - Pas mal pour une dernière bouteille. Vin délié, bon goût, dense mais fluide, petite persistance aromatique et manque de complexité. Un bon cru bourgeois qui aurait pu encore tenir (beaucoup de couleur en tous cas).

  June 3, 2012 - Still some agreeable fruit and nice secondary/tertiary flavors, but some harshness is appearing. According to the chateau this wine uses to peak every three years after the year of bottling, i.e. two years after the vintage. But I don’t think it will “survive” another cycle, i.e. two years. 85-86.

  April 8, 2012 - Note the same as that of 02-26-2012. Still less fruit and more secondairy/tertiairy flavours. I will drink my last bottle within one or two months. 88.
