January 9, 2023 - Bottle was in great condition, still very nice ruby red and ullage just under capsule.
No complains for this great 2003 bottle. Still fresh, oozed with vivacity despite being a bit tight to start with. First pour is tight, nothing much going on but you know you're in for a treat. Decanted for an hour, very pleasing scents of red fruits, rose petals, potpourri, hint of smokey earth, palate was then smoothed out, seamless mouthfeel, finish was a tad short but reasonable given the vintage.
Great fresh 2003 bottle despite the heat wave. Plus the great condition helped -

December 14, 2022 - A medium depth of colour, mid-red/garnet; quite intense, with a mixture of red fruit flavours, a slight creaminess and a touch of blueberry; elegant, harmonious and with a very long finish. A little more complexity and it would be a great wine. As it is, it is very fine and drinking perfectly now.

August 17, 2022 - Soft, lush, elegant, nicely mature and long on the finish. Very fine and showing little age, but excellent now.

August 2, 2022 - Candied fruit, sweet berries and spice on the nose. Palate shows the vintage sunshine but there is enough acidity to lift its freshness. Darkish red fruit spectrum. Outperformer for the vintage.

June 4, 2020 - Modest floral aromatics, surprisingly lifted. Huge, bitter fruit palate.
