Community Tasting Note

  December 31, 2017 - What a beauty this is. I've been totally surprised by all the 2003s I've tasted as given the hot year and the early vendange I have expected the wines to be pretty robust, stewed and somewhat 'simple', but this has not been the case and this a perfect example. An utterly gorgeous nose is followed on the palate by a juice that is rich, supple, complex and finely structured. There's good length too on the finish. This is a feminine beauty and despite being 14 years old is remarkably fresh. This particular sample is absolutely perfect at the moment and probably will be at it's best for the next five years, but I don't think there's anything to be gained by waiting. Estimated maturity: Now to 2023
