2003 Marquis-Philips Sarah's Blend

WW: i know what you mean, but i've been a sucker for their wines in the past. the '01 shiraz is drinking like liquid gold right now. only have 3 bottles left and wish i had bought more than one case.

drew: i agree about decanting these babies. but in the past, i found that even an hour or two in the decanter calmed them down enough to enjoy on release. but this '03 sarah's just doesn't seem to do it for me. guess i'll stick to the regular shiraz, the shiraz 9 and the S2 cab from this vintage. BTW, if you've had a bottle of the '01 S2 recently, i'd like to know what you thought about it. i had one about a month ago and did not like how it was ageing. thought it was better on release. still have 3 bottles left myself.
