2003 Chateau Haut-Mazeris, Canon-Fronsac (750ml)

"The compelling 2003 Canon-Fronsac is a modern-styled claret revealing loads of chocolate and creamy toasty oak giving it an espresso roast-like character. This dense purple-colored, flamboyant wine possesses sweet tannin, a voluptuous, opulent personality, full body, and loads of concentration. A sleeper of the vintage, it can be approached now, but will probably hit its peak in 3-4 years and last for 12-15." 91 points - Robert M. Parker Jr.'s, The Wine Advocate #164 (April 2006)
