A limited production wine from Laboure-Roi’s own vineyards, this is powerful and ripe, but tempered with refreshing acidity. With its spice and ginger flavors, it rolls richly around the mouth, and then finishes crisp and fresh.——R.V.(8/1/2007)—— 89

Rated, but no tasting note. This negociant firm is a source of sturdy, rustic, but pleasant red burgundies that are good, but unexciting. The 1993s are overall an austere group of wines with the vintage's high tannin well-displayed. The wines of Laboure-Roi are represented by different importers in each state wherein this firm does business. In the east, the importer is Lauber Imports, Somerville, NJ; tel. (908) 725-2100.
