Tasting notes
(opened from personal storage). The expressive and highly complex nose is now almost completely secondary but note that there is no sous-bois present. There is excellent richness to the velvety and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent power and plenty of verve on the mouth coating and impressively long finish. This is now drinking perfectly as the supporting tannins are almost completely resolved and it should continue to do so for many years to come as the balance is impeccable. An excellent Clos de Vougeot.

For whatever reason, the Clos de Vougeot is the lightest-colored of all the Meo-Camuzet 1993s, displaying an average ruby color. Although one-dimensional, the wine has good ripeness, medium body, and a spicy, lightly tannic finish. Cellar it for 2-4 years and drink it over the following 5-6. Meo-Camuzet's 1993s are unquestionably successes for the vintage. All the wines were bottled in April, 1995 without fining or filtration.
