En Magnum — Violets and blackcurrants, great balance, solid structure, ripe tannins, long finish, very fine!!

Dark fruits, still showing some solid structure, very nice depth, needs some more time in the cellar, medium-long finish, very nice!!

Slight cork taint diminishes this otherwise lovely old school Margaux, nicely balanced, medium-long finish, but not quite what it should be.

Lovely violet and plum aromas, good structure still, this is drinking beautifully but needs another 10-15 years to really reach its potential, wonderful old-school Bordeaux.

Fresh, lively redfruit aromas and flavors, still solid structure, long finish, excellent 1994 Margaux, should last many, many years!!

Really a terrific Margaux from 1995, tanninc, structured, really super youthful flavors, this is a 25-year-old Bordeaux that needs 15+ more years of aging, lovely juice!!

En magnum. Medium-dark color, complex black currant and earthy aromas, similar flavors, solid grip and structure, nicely elegant, old style (pre-1990s) Bordeaux, beautiful!!

Lovely older Bordeaux, some violets and redfruits, balanced and seems mature.
