Bernadotte 2003 Non subscription & bundles and the finish is longA sleeper of the vintage, the 2003 possesses a dense plum purple color, a rich, sumptuous perfume of roasted nuts, cedar, figs, plums, and black currants, medium to full body, silky tannin, low acidity, and a lush, hedonistic, sensual personality. It should drink well for a decade.
