This lovely bottle received a score of 95 from Robert Parker of Wine Advocate. The uncompromisingly made, formidably powerful, masculine, and highly extracted 2003 has an inky purple color to the rim, a big, deep personality with a tight but promising nose of forest floor, creme de cassis, smoke, charcoal, licorice, and perhaps even truffle. It is layered, rich, and set for an exceptionally long life, but dont expect to get a lot of joy even in this somewhat overtly styled vintage for at least another 78 years. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2030+.
