"The 1993 Clos Vougeot from the Mugneret sisters is a superb wine that is just now really starting to reach its plateau of maturity. The bouquet is deep, complex and very pure, delivering a constellation of plums, red and black cherries, cocoa powder, a touch of both cinnamon and fresh nutmeg, woodsmoke, gamebird, a fine base of soil and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and tangy, with a lovely core of fruit, great backend mineral drive, refined, moderate tannins and a long, vibrant and very complex finish. While this is starting to really drink well, I am going to be keep my last few bottles buried . . ."
