1993 Burgundy dinner. A special wine. Young and lightly effervescent, which lent very pleasurable mouth feel. Good acidity and lots of tertiary complexity. Retains good fruit and acidity.

Nose of toffee and tropical fruits. Taste almost magical and dense. Ripe lychee and candylike tropical fruit flavors with perfect acidity. I expected a less youthful flavor with the toffee aroma, but the fruit is overwhelming. The bubbles were faint (but present) or I would score it higher. That said, the wine is so flavorful, full bodied and well balanced, the lack of bubbles hardly mattered. Very reminiscent of a 69 Lanson of similar age, although the Lanson was superior.
