1993 Ampeau Volnay Santenots
Written By: Michael Zimberg on Friday, March 21, 2008
This is why I love red burgundy. Incrediby compelling aromas of pine, fresh tilled earth, mushrooms. Another wine to sit and smell for minutes. Astringent flavors at first. Then sour cherries, fall leaves, and not anywhere as good as the nose. But many compelling flavors here, including menthol notes. Decent value, retail $75.

Michael Zimberg has intuition when it comes to wine. Somehow, some way, he is able to spot the best deals and the best food and wine pairings. Mikey's wife, Jill, attributes it to a naturally well-defined sense of taste and smell, combined with a healthy dose of experience. Whatever it is, his reviews shouldn't be missed.
