Château Lafite-Rothschild 1993 1er Cru

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

Vintage: 1993
Type: Bordeaux
Country: France – Bordeaux

We had this wine with a meal at a club restaurant for our 1 month anniversary.

Wow.

The wine was incredibly balanced with great black cherry flavour and earthy tones. Quite mature and smooth, the edges of the wine were almost clear.

Now I know why this wine is considered one of the best around. Highly recommended, if you can find it. We were lucky as it was part of the club’s cellar and they didn’t overcharge for it.

Quinta do Poco do Lobo

Friday, February 20th, 2009

Vintage: 1993
Type: Cabernet Sauvignon
Country: Portugal

This wine was a bit of a surprise, as it seems to have been on the wine rack for a long time. How else would a 1993 vintage still be around! This wine was well aged; it seemed to be past its prime, but nevertheless a good glass. The colours were good, the aroma pleasant and the taste subtle and refined.
