  Nice nose, no fruit remaining, big wine with a brooding open that has a peppery falter in the mid palate and a puckered finish

  Over the hill. Fruit is very muted, still a good balance of other vegetal and coffee flavors, though. Drink them if you are still holding.

  Deep purple/red, compared to last bottle, more complexity on the nose, really nice meaty elements, black fruits and brambles but having to compete with strong smoky oak aromas - well balanced, good not great length, still some big tannins, if I had another bottle I would take a chance and keep it for another 3-5 yrs - tasty, well made syrah.

  Lot's of sediment in this bottle. Decanted it was quite enjoyable.

  After reading a TN from someone who just drank an 02 Morrison Lane, I figured it was high time to open one of my 2003's. Holy sh#t is all I can say. What a total slut of a wine. Deep, deep purple color with an aroma of fruit, fruit, fruit. Any hint of tannin is long gone and at 14%, not much heat from the alcohol either. It was a bit shy at first so I let it sit for about an hour and boy did it come to party after that. Blackberries, blueberries, black cherries, and other fruits just filled your mouth and made you smile. It doesn't take a Mensa member to enjoy this wine (not exactly thought provoking but damn was it good). Another hedonistic effort from Charles and I would expect nothing less! 92pts.
