July 8, 2012 - Mature st Emilion. very tasty, with red going well to brick. Subdued fruit but with fairly well developed bouquet of right bank merlot blend.
Ready to drink now. Not sure I would hold it a lot longer.
Bigger than I expected in the mouth... must have been that hot, hot year of 2003. Balance is still pretty good and the tannins are nicely rounded out.
An easy to drink Biordeaux for beginners too.
I have one left, a gift from Tim and Nancy, and will indulge a steak or beef roast when I open it. -
