"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
