For a '94 pinot we were amazed at the fruit, cherry, present in a '94 pinot. The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle.

Still drinking well after been in cellar since 1997. Took over an hour to open and get over a bit of funky nose. Plenty of fruit. Soft body. Very enjoyable.

Fairly big for a pinot, with lots of baked fruit, hints of earthiness and plenty of backbone. Needed a few hours of air to mellow a little and start to taste like pinot. Very good, but I liked the '91 and '87 better.

Pop n pour. Good color, not much bricking but shows some age. Nose was a little muted but no fear, the this is really good. Has much more structure than the '78 which is understandable. Interesting the fruit profile is very similar aged red berries.

Fresh fruity nose with a bit of earth. Plenty of red berry fruit in the taste with a good backbone. Impressive complexity with hints of mushroom and darker fruits coming through. Incredible mouth filling linger. Went beautifully with some aged New Hampshire cheddar. Drinking great, there should be several years left in this. Would drink again in a heartbeat.
