Robert Parker (99)

The 2003 Contador (a meager 200 bottles for the American market) was sourced from three tiny parcels ranging in age from 65-80 years. It was fermented in new French barriques, aged for 12 months, and bottled unfined and unfiltered. The result is a spectacular wine with a remarkably expressive nose of pain grille, lead pencil, spice box, espresso, black currants, and wild blueberries that roars from the glass. The opulent palate is mouth-coating, thick, and full-flavored with the structure well-concealed by the masses of fruit. This legend in the making, while irresistible now, should evolve slowly over 2-3 decades much like a first growth Bordeaux and still be drinking at age 50.

Winespectator (90)

Bright acidity sparks this expressive red, enlivening its cherry, cranberry and herb flavors and balancing the oak notes of vanilla and toast. Firm, but juicy on the finish. Unusually racy for the vintage.?
