Vintage 1993

In Burgundy 1993, an early flowering in the month of June, was followed by a wet early July before a hot dry August. The reds of 1993 are outstanding. They are powerful and concentrated with a firm backbone of ripe tannins. The whites although austere to begin with and slow to evolve have developed into magnificent well structured, powerful wines. A vintage that produced wines built for ageing.

Once again, expectations were high in Burgundy...

Written Notes

Bought soon after release. Level: 1,5 cm (excellent). Cork: very good.

Healthy, clear medium red colour with brown edge. Lovely bouquet of earth, oak, herbs, red berries. Medium bodied, fruit holding well, but the high acidity dominates the overall very good impression. I guess it is time to drink this 1993 up. Fine sediment  makes this wine a bit cloudy soon after half of the bottle. A very good Burgundy but not as great as previous bottles a few years ago.

Food: Veal, wild fowl.

Music: The acidity asked for Ian Gillan's voice in Deep Purple's "Child in time" from the "Made in Japan" recording :-) Can't always stand it, but when you're in the mood...
