Community Tasting Note

97 Points

Monday, December 4, 2006 - Wow - was this a pleasant surprise. This blew away the '82 and '85, my favorite vintages of Barton. Incredibly deep, seamless, balanced. This had the great texture and mouthfeel that I find in most top '90s, and a finish that seemed to go on forever. This is already a complex and complete wine, bit it may even have some room for further improvement, and should age beautifully. Perhaps (one can only hope) the '03 will be similar to this in 15 years.
