Lots of depth of color still. Barely any bricking. Not opaque at all. This opens somewhat tight. A bit musty/funky. But it relaxes into a classic expression of cab with cedar, cassis, tobacco and some wood smoke. Plenty of tannin in here. It was actually pretty reserved on night one. Night two is seeing a more open expression on the palate. A nice straight forward Bordeaux. Terrific for the money I bought it for but it's not going to make you forget the big boys. Lots in the tank here. I'm not familiar enough with '94 Bordeaux to know but given this wine blind I wouldn't be surprised if it could open maturely in the future.

Same as my last note. Strong and dark still. Not very complex. Classic build. Still tannic.

Quite good. Classic bordeaux nose. Surprisingly good considering age and vintage.
