Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 96
The unctuous, opulent 2003 Laville Haut-Brion is stunningly rich, full-bodied, and intense. Reminiscent of the 1989 and 1994, it offers a powerful, concentrated, honeyed grapefruit character intermixed with citrus oil, flowers, and waxy marmalade, admirable acidity, and a tremendous mouthfeel as well as length. It should drink well for 25+ years.
Steve Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 92
Slightly reduced aromas of tropical fruits, lanolin, honey, oyster shell and resiny oak. Fat, thick and powerful, with rich peach and ripe citrus flavors along with a very rich honeyed aspect from the semillon and the sheer ripeness of the harvest. A bit livelier in the mouth than the nose suggests, and clearly better balanced than it seemed to be last spring. At 13%, this is actually a bit lower in alcohol than the 2004.
Wine Spectator 95-99
Lots of lemon, lime and honey aromas with hints of other citrus fruits. Full-bodied, with exotic fruit character. Fresh and long. Papaya, mango and banana. A tropical drink. 88 percent Sémillon this year, the rest Sauvignon Blanc. - Barrel Tasting
