Poured at a retailer tasting. Sells for about $30. This is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 15% Petit Verdot. Nice integrated tannins. Ripe red fruit notes with black cherry and plum primarily. A rich finish. 90 points.

Last one. Incrementally better than the last two '03s, so clearly thing wine just needed more time. Cassis and crushed berries, something a little minty/eucalyptus (I think) and a bit of oak. Tannis were still drying, so I need to get more patient.

Agree with other note--this isn't in the same league with the '01 Mosaique. But it was still a tasty table wine, albeit lacking the QPR which the older vintage had. Good bordeaux character--cherry, cassis, bandaid. Drink up.
