The most interesting vintages of the nineties for wine collectors are:
Bordeaux: 1990 - An exceptional year.
Italy: 1995, 1997, 1999 - A very good year. Wine with an exellent balance, fairly winey; a wine of great perfume .
Bordeaux: 1995, 1996, 1999 - A very good year. Brilliant, rich colour, orange round the edge. A very delicate bouquet of great finesse. Ripe, melting tannins though still closed up. Wonderful concentration, and a splendid finish.
Italy: 1993, 1994 - A good year. Rich and mellow wine, with an optimal balance.
Bordeaux: 1993, 1994, 1997, 1998 - A good year. Full, not too mellow wine, full-bodied, very brilliant, deep bouquet.
