While the 2002 version of this wine is drinking very well, this wine will never, ever come close to its predecessor. This bottle shows all that is wrong with the '03 vintage - stewed fruits, no acidity, no verve, and just…blah. Too bad, I liked this when it was first released…but who knows, my palate’s changed quite a bit since then.
I’m disappointed. Time to pick something else from the cellar…
