Sunday, August 27, 2023 - Sadly, my last bottle. But this is still drinking great at 30. I’ve always felt that 1993 was a vintage where the critics by and large missed the boat - almost the inverse of the situation where they heaped all that praise on ‘97 and 2000.

Not that I necessarily intended to do this, but I’m drinking this today with a 2000 Cavallotto Vigna San Giuseppe Riserva, and at least on opening, this is clearly the better wine.

Good acidity and persistence on the palate, red fruit and tar notes and a little menthol on the nose as well. The only bummer here, as I mentioned right up front, is this is my last bottle 🍷😢
