Indeed, it's no surprise that 1963 doesn't quite compare to the exceptional vintage of 1961. It was a very challenging year for Bordeaux winemakers. In Burgundy, the 1963 vintage was saved by a sunny late season, resulting in late harvests in November. Burgundy wines were more successful in whites than in reds. Indeed, the quality of the 1963 whites is quite good, although some lack acidity.

In the Rhône region, 1963 was also a difficult year. Weather conditions did not favor good grape maturation. Consequently, the 1963 vintage does not offer exceptional wines.

 

Our advice for buying a 1963 wine

The 1963 vintage isn't particularly successful in the Rhône or Bordeaux regions, which is why a Burgundy Grand Cru would be preferable.

We recommend the 1963 Romanée Conti from Domaine de la Romanée Conti and Château d'Yquem 1963 which offer great wines in this vintage.
