Sunday, March 23, 2014 - Very good bottle, slightly less expressive and exotic than the last bottle. Offers a seamless polished experience, certainly atypical of Bdx but still with plenty of Bdx character. No heat, perfectly balanced, just a little more plush than typical of LB in other vintages. Drinking very well now and shouldn't fade quickly, but I don't see great upside here and given how some '03s have faded, I'll be consuming my bottles over the next 5-8yrs. No guilt in opening one now.
