Animal, underbrush, wild berries and meat. Clean and pure fruit on the palate. The nose carries the wine through the palate seamlessly. More Gevrey than Volnay. Very good.

A wonderful burgundy. It was my daughter’s birth wine, and we brought it to the restaurant to celebrate her birthday. As is our customs, we also shared a taste with our waiter. To quote him: “this is the best wine I’ve ever had. I would drink it out of a tennis shoe.” I could think of no stronger testament. \\

Nice mature burgundy nose dipping into the classic barnyard and forest floor, pale red fruit on the palate turning stony on the back end. Very well-integrated structure with tannin nicely brushed over puts this in a great drinking spot, though the fruit is more middle-aged than mature.

Tasted blind, this wine had a deep red/purple center with light red/clear rims. The high- intensity nose of black cherries, cola, and soil was attractive.
In the mouth this wine was medium bodied with great richness. It had light rounded tannin and nice balance. This wine avoided the typical hyper-intensity of most 1993s. However, like many of them, my guess is that this wine will still benefit from 5+ years in the cellar.

Animal, underbrush, herbs and dark fruit. Good density on the palate with sweetness. An elegant Volnay that drinks more like a Gevrey.
