2003 E. Guigal Cotes du Rhone

[brappy]

As a side note, I just checked out Bob's note on e-Bob. He used the words lightly tannic. I wonder how long the wine decanted before he tasted, as this seems the only way the tannins could soften enough to be considered light. If I were showing this wine, I'd double decant and let it rest for about 2.5 or 3 hours before tasting, so maybe, that's what was done.

Wonders, I don't see where he said this was the best EVER. I do see where he talks about Mr. Guigal saying the vintage ('03) is the best in his lifetime, but I believe he was talking about the vintage as a whole and not just the CDR.
