René Engel: Surprisingly very good, lighter than other bottles but not quite marked by the vintage, notable Echezeaux woodiness coming through still red fruit making this one of the best and cleanest interpretation of the terroir I have tasted. 94

Rene Engel Dinner (Benoit Bistro, Manhattan): Showed very well. Mature, but still with the tension and excitement that one desires. Firmly in the red fruit camp with very resolved tannins lending to a very easy drinking and pleasurable ech. Less structured than most of the other Engel bottles on the table, but elgant and in balance.

Dense, mature, ripe for a 1994. Satisfying
