A brooding, tight nose matches the deeper colour. The palate is less fat and shows another (higher) level of tannin. The fruit is up to the challenge, but this is a much fresher wine. Also medium length.

From the ‘Quartier des Marei Haut’. Some freshness on the nose, sweet, ripe fruit – but not overly so. Fresh palate with dense but beautifully textured tannins and plenty of fruit extract to balance them. Like almost all 2003’s this is very ripe, but still manages to offer a ‘classicly’ balanced wine. Very good.
