The 1993 Domenico Clerico 'Ciabot Mentin Ginestra' is dazzling wine, the fruit is still so fresh and the beautiful aromas of dried flowers, especially violets and rose petals are seductive, followed by tar and earthiness adding a wonderful layer of complexity. There is also a hint of truffles and licorice that transition on to the long finish which is framed by soft berries, plums and a hint of spice. This is remarkably balanced with wonderful finesse and looks to be at its peak right now. - October, 2013 (JR)
