A dense wine, its tannins firmly in place. It shows ripe red berry fruits, firm structure and rich, juicy fruit. Powered by its tannins, it will remain a firm wine for 2–3 years.

A young tannic wine with jammy, fresh red-cherry fruits and red plum skins. The acidity is palpable, shooting through the structure, giving the wine a fresh, fruity aftertaste.

There aren’t many 2003 wines available today, and this raisin and red fruit flavored wine shows plenty of attractive ripe flavors. Dried fruits dominate, giving the wine a Port-like richness, the tannins now comfortably integrated in the texture.
