St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)
Bouteilles empaquetées dans une caisse bois d’origine de 12 bouteilles, dessus de caisse remplacé par du cartonnage
Packed in a 12 bottle owc, lid replaced with cardboard
Only 18,000 bottles made. Very complex, very exotic, all the way through. So ‘sweet’ and melting, in spite of the tannin. Lots of coffee tastes. Unbelievably toasty. The alcohol is completely hidden. Finish of dates, a first for me. And, at 6 years old, very complex nose, with great depth, richness and density. On the palate, wonderful sweet 2003 fruit over powerful, ripe tannins that show great quality and class. A triumphant 2003, with the oak stunningly integrated. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
