(Romanée-Conti Echézeaux) Medium-plus colour. Bright, ebullient nose: at first it's wide and fat, becoming sleeker with time. Eventually there is a dense core of slightly indistinct fruit overlayed with a minty tone. The instant impression in the mouth is from the texture of the tannins, they're not the most cultured - plenty of rasp - followed by ripe, sweet fruit that ends with an interesting touch of sourness. There's a long, intruiging finish that has a little saccharin about it. I'd have no concern over drinking this today as it's a lovely wine, but vs other recent vintages it's just a little more simple.

Concentrated and powerful, like more a Richebourg than Echezeaux. Wine still youthful with plenty of tannins, fruits and acidity. We matched it with 2004 vintage which was a big contrast. 2004 was a cool year and much more feminine than the 2003.

Well I was hoping for the best. The reality of it is, it’s ripe, dark, and fairly heavy. I did detect some spice like gingerbread. But it was totally covered by mintish eucalyptus. It was most drinkable on the third day, but I never really enjoyed a sip of it. One of my few not great bottles from Thanksgiving to Christmas! Bottle 306

This is another well done 2003 - excellent acidity balancing fruit.

Vibrant and pungent nose with wild berries, spice, herbs, and minerals. Palate had the vintage ripeness but the acidity was high enough to uplift the wine. It was a very sexy wine. Love the 03 DRC. It will certainly age gracefully but it is already drinking beautifully.
