Thursday, July 27, 2006 - 2003 Bordeaux (Mouton, Haut Brion, Cos, Ducru, Trotanoy, Lynch, many others): A big step up in quality here. Dark red color. The nose is stern, giving mainly lead pencil with dark fruit and some greeness in the background. On the palate this is very round and pleasing. Dark fruit, an enjoyable earthiness, and sweet licorice. Low acidity. A nice long finish. Great wine. Note that I retasted this approximately two hours later, and it had really shut down. Based on its reputation and this experience I would guess this wine will have a long closed period.
