Tasting notes
Fully mature and best drunk up over the next 3-4 years, Tertre Roteboeuf’s 1993 is one of the better wines in this difficult vintage. Medium-bodied, with plum, earth, mushroom, and prune aromas, this is a well-endowed 1993 that still has a surprisingly deep plum/cherry color, sweet fruit on the attack, medium body, and excellent depth, ripeness, and overall balance. The wine probably sells for a song, given the lackluster reputation of the vintage. This is one of the cherries to be plucked from 1993. Anticipated maturity: Now-2014. Last tasted, 12/02.
