"This large-scaled, youthful Yquem appears set to take its
place among the most legendary vintages of the past,
and will age effortlessly for 75+ years. 100
points." Robert Parker
"I scored it a perfect 100 points…. Yquem is in a class by itself.
If it were possible to give a wine more than 100
points, this would be a candidate. This is the
greatest young Yquem I
have ever tasted from bottle". James Suckling in
The Wine Spectator

2003 Vintage Port
|
|
Talking of modern classics…We still have cases
remaining of a number of these wines, from a vintage
that, for the first time in several "declarations"
(those years in which vintage port is made; usually
two or three vintages in a decade) is constructed
along the lines of the Parthenon: classically sturdy
and with the ability to stand the test of time! Think
no more what to lay down for boys born in '03; the
best of these ports will be fabulous to drink over
much of their lifetimes!
"Samples of the young wines show the latest declared
year to be outstanding."
James Suckling in The Wine Spectator
"…it was clear from these purple essences that
vine-growing and wine-making skills are increasing
every year in port country." Jancis
Robinson from
her Purple Pages
