1993 Bonnes Mares, d'Auvenay: Deep ruby core. A very lush and opulent nose of blackberry, blueberry, black cherry liqueur, exotic spice, long zheng tea and bouquets of violet, with a sappy undertone. Aromatically heady. Medium bodied with a measured weight. Vibrant acidity and very fine tannin giving the wine a most refined and elegant structure with an understated power and beautiful detail. Lovely long velvety finish. This is a wine still flaunting an almost ageless youthfulness, that can certainly be enjoyed now but will reach its apogee in probably 10 years time. 19/20
