Huge, juicy, fat palate. Wonderful complexity and depth, but maybe a little bit all over the place. Lots of flavor and a hedonistic pleasure, but elegant it's not.

France Trip Part 2 - Northern Rhône; 6/18/2006-6/20/2006: Dinner @ Michelle Chabran, Valence. Same bottle as Vinsanity. Tasted immediately after the 2004, this was bigger, less acidic, spicier, and oilier. I liked the 2004 better.

Ordered following the 2004. Compared to the 2004, predictably, the 2003 was fatter, ripre and more oily. Slighyl spicy. Not as focused or balanced as the 2004, but still very nice.
