An auction bottle for $50, nose of black cherry fruit, cigar box, and earth, more of the same on the palate, medium body, delicious fruit, touch simple, not as tasty as the first bottle, some acid, long finish.

After the 1993, seemed like a great idea to try the 1994. Nose of black cherry fruit with earth, and herbs and smoke, more of the same on the palate, seems lighter, more evolved than last night's wine, could be better given the 1994 vintage but still tasty and lovely, medium body and medium/long finish.

Not what I was hoping for. Slightly bitter dark chocolate and a harsh mid palate overwhelmed the fruit in this bottle. Half an hour later, it had improved a bit, but not much.

Out of magnum. Nice with a strip sirloin. Decanted for 45 min. Light color, good finish. Drink.
