1993 Wine

Our review of the 1993 vintage: a good quality vintage.

For Bordeaux wines, a rather satisfactory year. Marked by changing weather with a hot summer and heavy rainfall before harvest, severe sorting was necessary. Talented producers managed to stand out with fleshy and balanced wines. The best successes can be found in the Médoc area, particularly in the Margaux, Saint Julien, and Pessac Léognan appellations. The same observation applies to Burgundy wines, with capricious weather but ultimately yielding very decent grape quality and quantity. The red Burgundies improve with time, but the whites are not built for aging.

In the Rhône region, following a rather dark period between 1991 and 1994, good summer conditions were swept away by heavy rains. In the South, severe flooding occurred from mid-September. This resulted in rather light wines.

 

Our advice for buying a 1993 wine

Among the finest successes of this vintage, we recommend Château Angelus 1993, Château Margaux 1993, Château Pape Clément 1993 and Château Talbot 1993 which offer great wines. The Sauternes this year should be avoided, as heavy rains deteriorated the vintage quality.

Regarding Burgundy wines, turn to the red wines which are good, complex and gain length over time.

In the northern Rhône Valley, the 1993 wines are of lower quality. However, in the southern Rhône, the red wines are excellent. The Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas appellations produced a great vintage.
