A beautiful 1996 vintage
A fine 1996 vintage with a special mention for the red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy, the Champagne and white wines of Chablis, Jura and Alsace and the wines of northern Italy. Most of these wines are at good maturity but can also be kept in the cellar for a few more years.
The price of the 1996 wines
1996 is a vintage often overshadowed by 1990 or 1989 and so it is easier to find a 1996 Bordeaux, a 1996 vintage Champagne or a 1996 Burgundy grand cru at a reasonable price than the same wine in these other great vintages.
The best wines of 1996
In Bordeaux, the 1996 vintage stands out mainly in the north of the Médoc for the red wines (Saint-Estèphe, Pauillac, Saint-Julien, Haut-Médoc) and in the Graves for the dry white wines, It is also a good vintage in Burgundy, especially in Chablis for the whites, a remarkable vintage in Champagne and a very good vintage for the great sweet white wines of Alsace in late harvest and selection of noble grains and the great wines of the Jura with the yellow wine of Château-Chalon for its conservation potential of several decades. Italy is not to be outdone with the Barolos of Piedmont and, to a lesser extent, the great Tuscan wines.
