Wine Spectator
Shows the ripe, opulent power of the vintage, with dark plum, raspberry confiture, hoisin sauce and tar notes that are held back by youthfully stubborn tannins. Yet the long, sinewy finish has impressive drive, with hints of chestnut, game and mineral. Patience required.
Jeb Dunnuck
The 2003 Châteauneuf du Pape Hommage A Jacques Perrin is fully mature (I’ve had other bottles show more closed and tight, I’ve also had bad luck with corked bottles of this wine) and is a beautiful 2003 that does everything right. Loads of ripe dark fruits, truffle, underbrush, spice, and licorice notes all give way to a full-bodied effort that has loads of sexy fruit, beautiful Mourvèdre spice and meaty characteristics, ripe tannins, and a great finish. I love its mid-palate, it has good purity and precision, and is another vintage of this cuvée that can be drunk today or cellared for another decade or more.
Decanter
Looks much older than the 2005 vintage, paler and browner. Notes of beef stock and some damp autumn leaves, the aromas a pricked by a little volatile acidity and the fruit is starting to fade. There is good complexity on the nose however. Tannins are damping down now, leaving richness of body, but some dryness on the finish, which is beginning to appear a little harsh. It's not going to fall apart any time soon, but it's time to drink up.
