Score 93/100 · Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate, Oct 2000

The 1993 Clos de Vougeot is medium-to-dark ruby-colored with touches of amber on the edges. It is admirably concentrated and deep, with powerful brambleberry and blackberry fruit. However, this medium-to-full-bodied wine has hard, rugged tannin (verging on astringent) that cause concern. I would opt for drinking it soon, but those readers that have faith in the 1993s may want to hold on to it for a decade to see what happens.
