November 4, 2015 - From 375. Moderate maturity, but losing stability, so drink up. Blackberry fruit, medium body, pretty ho-hum Cab.

March 31, 2013 - Purchased this bottle in St. Pierre et Miquelon about five years ago. It was exceptional and perfectly aged.

February 17, 2013 - Nose shows ripe dark fruit; plum, blackberry, and black current, with toasted oak and butterscotch plus charcoal and mineral notes. The palate starts medium bodied with dark forest fruit leading to some meatiness mid palate and a firm kick of tannins and acid on the finish. Maybe a touch too hot and oaky in the finish but overall a nice wine for the 16? price tag. Still quite youthful for the super hot '03 vintage. This wine could probably go another five years, maybe more. Drink 2013-2018.

February 20, 2010 - Deep red colour with little sign of ageing. On nose, plenty of big black fruits confirming ripeness of 03. Ripe fruits on palette backed by a meatiness uncharateristic of Bordeaux, but underlying pencil-shaving notes. Well structured, firm tannins and good acids. Drinking fine now but would benefit from further ageing.
