Fantastic, fully mature Bordeaux. Well-rounded, soft, smooth and sexy.
You cannot go wrong with this!

This wine was at its peak... drank with 05 Lynch and 05 Leoville Poyferre, so I was expecting a relative poor showing due to hot vintage. Obviously it did lack power and fruit of 05s, but they both needed more time in my opinion (LP is a beast), and the 03 was hitting on all cylinders. It was elegant, but still backbone and complexity. Dark fruits still present, a little leather, a nice floral element... paired perfectly with bone marrow glazed prime rib for Christmas dinner. Opened two hours prior, but did not require decanter until time to serve. It opened up much faster than 05s.

The wine showed beautifully after a 45 minute decant. My guests were thrilled with the wine as was I.
