Please please please, do not call me Master.  I am just one of the many many wine lovers here.

Yes 2003 is in the market now and many of them are very tasty even at such young stage.  I trie ...

2003 wine are best value... vintage 2000 are best in a long time. 2005's prices are skyrocket.  So, 2003 are best value.

In fact, these are pretty good non-1st growth good French Bordeaux from 2003 according to several major reviewers:

1996 is a peculiar wine year for the French Bordeaux region...
It is one year that most 1996 wine in that region are so-so. But, the !996 Chateaux Lafiitte Rothschild is rated tops better than many 1995 greats and just a shade less than the greats of 2000 vintage.

These need to wait until at least 2010 to start enjoying....
