- 1st bot corked - This show quite differently from the CDLR which it should be. Lifted, not as powerful but airier and calmer on the nose, touch of mint to kick start the expressive, complex aromatic profile with intense ripe blue and red fruits, just a touch of sous bois, very floral with sweet herbs.
- So fresh on the palate. Even fresher than the 1990 CDLR, incredible grip, mouth coating in the most refined, elegant way. Finish is intense but clean and pure. Youthful and great tension. Love this. The higher acidity giving a very nice shape to the wine. Very precise, complex subtle minerality and autumn leaves, floral inner perfume. (We are debating this could have a very minor TCA but, well).

Burghound Symposium Asia - 1993 vintage dinner (Shanghai): Medium garnet, cloudy. Expressive nose of sour cherry, sweet spices, game, refined and complex. Excellent volume on the palate, lots of energy and lift as well, stays elegant and balanced. A Wow wine. Also people like me, who are no Ponsot fans had to admit.

Great Burgundy Dinner (Bavette's - Chicago IL): Ripe and powerful red and black cherry, coming across simultaneously as fresh and also maturing perfectly. Everything in perfect harmony. Served alongside Ponsot 1993 Latricieres-Chambertin and Dujac 1999 Clos St Denis, this 1993 CSD was the superstar of the amazing flight.

3/3/2016 - tinybubbles Does not like this wine:
Poor bottle. Likely storage conditions. Some chocolate on the nose with minimal fruit. Acidic palate. 84
