Wine Advocate #146(4/2003) Rating: 90 points Drink: 2008-2019
An outstanding Duhart, certainly one of the best produced at this estate since the 1996, 1986, and 1982, this blend of 80.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19.5% Merlot reveals a deep ruby/purple color as well as notes of lead pencil intermixed with wet stones, black currants, and a certain leafiness. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, and dense, but tightly-knit, with considerable tannin, it will require patience. For those willing to wait, it will be a sleeper of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2019. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (7/31/2003) Score:90
Loads of plum, tobacco, meaty and cedary character on the nose. Full-bodied, with lots of chewy tannins and a long, luscious finish. This needs time to open. Closed now. Best after 2007. 20,000 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating：
Very good colour, lovely, very pure Cabernet Sauvignon nose, really good grip but not hard and over-tannic, very good extraction, a firm but totally ripe wine. Good. Ready 2007-2025. |
