98 WA. "A great bottle and showing the hallmark elegance of the estate, the 2003 Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape offers up a kirsch liqueur, liquid flower, red licorice and spice-box driven bouquet along with a full-bodied, seamless, silky profile on the palate. Still beautifully put together and aging gracefully, with a core of sweet fruit, it is certainly drinking well now, yet should continue to hold . . ." Wine Advocate #207, Jun 2013 |
