One of the highlights in the tasting - pure and elegant, feels timeless and perfect. Rich and long.

quite complex and mineral-driven. Not overpowering, rather discrete. Don't discover oxidation here at this stage.

Felt a bit tired, even thought the nose delivered great, mature Pinot hints and the wine developed well in the glass over time. The DRC GE 1962 completely overshadowed this.

Superb wine, one of the highlights of the tasting - brilliant, complex, exotic with spice and finesse. Perfectly balanced, powerful; great length.

Great mature Burgundy - beautiful expression of mature Pinot fruit with an elegant sweetness, earth, underwood, bit of spice - held up very nicely.

Wow, what a wine. Laser-like precision. This is how perfect acidity can taste, with just the right level of sweetness and minerality. Pretty perfect wines.

Chateau bottled - this wine seems at best have reached teenage years - still deep color and some tannins; beautiful sweetness and depth with spice attached - would probably wait another 20, 30 years to drink.

Mahler-Besse bottle. Lives up to expectations; compared to the Cheval Blanc this seems to have reached perfection in its evolution. Opulent, seductive, complex - this is hard to beat.

Great precision with a nose true to the terroir, great flavors and promise of a wonderful wine - got better with time in the glass; whilst some of the 1993 tend to be a bit rustic at times, the RSV showed its class.

I liked this wine more than my friends did - think the nose is quite archetypical Musigny - great intensity - just needs more time

Great concentration here and sweetness, approachable now

Had this before - pales next to the 1983, but I quite like this wine that has a bit more acidity and contrast than its more dominant peer at the dinner

Explosive and concentrated with a very long finish - wow, powerhouse of an Yquem
