"The most striking
feature about the eight days I spent tasting the 2003s was that I felt
like I was tasting five or six different vintages, a sentiment I never
before experienced. Some wines were reminiscent of 1990, a few of 1982,
but others had more in common with 1991, 1989, and 1975...some
profoundly great wines were produced, particularly in the most favored
sector, the northern Médoc. " - Robert Parker
"This is going to be
an exceptional vintage for Sauternes with all
richness and fantastic botrytis character (currently
masked by a wall of fat sweetness) that you could
want."
