The Beaune Clos du Roi offers a healthy, medium ruby color, sweet, jammy, cherry fruit, roasted herbs, and oak aromas, elegant, flowery, berry-like flavors, and a soft, ripe finish. Filled with charm and finesse, this wine can be drunk over the near-term. This domaine's 1993s possess the vintage's elevated tannins, tart acidity, and lack of concentration. As a general rule, they are sound wines, but none will be extra special.
