The Bizot Vosne-Romanee 1994 is a magnificent reflection of the arduous, meticulous labour of legendary winemaker Jean-Yves Bizot. Refined and elegantly structured, this single varietal Pinot Noir originated in Vosne-Romanee, the heartland of outstanding Bourgogne wines. Painstakingly hand-harvested from vines rooted in marl and limestone-rich soils, the grapes used in the Bizot Vosne-Romanee 1994 were traditionally vinified using spontaneous fermentation and aged in used oak barrels for eighteen months to enhance its complex profile. The end result is an inviting medley of black cherries, soft rose petal notes, layered subtly with black truffle undertones, culminating in a prolonged, pleasing finish. With the winemaker's devotion to low-intervention techniques, this stellar vintage encapsulates Bizot's philosophy of creating wines that truly express their terroir. Garnering admiration from critics worldwide, Bizot Vosne-Romanee 1994 triumphantly epitomises exquisite Burgundian winemaking. |

Wine Advocate (84)The Domaine de la Romanée-Conti's 1994 La Tâche Grand Cru does not transcend the limitations of this challenging vintage, offering up a rather pedestrian bouquet of red-black fruit and licorice, becoming more and more dominated by its lavish application of high-quality new oak as it sits in the glass and never revealing any of the aromatic drama of which La Tâche is capable. On the palate, the wine is chunky and foursquare, with bright acids and a certain tannic asperity that suggests this is unlikely to change in any critical respect in the foreseeable future. |

Wine Advocate (93)On January 17, 1997, a Belgian wine merchant held a comprehensive tasting of virtually every Montrachet at the Crillon Hotel in Paris. In addition to myself, Pierre Rovani was the only other American in attendance. The group was evenly split between members of the Belgian/French wine trade and private consumers. I was permitted to insert several top California Chardonnays in the tasting as "ringers." I provided the Peter Michael Chardonnay Pointe Rouge and the 1992 Mount Eden Estate Chardonnay. The tasting was impeccably organized, with the wines served blind in multiple flights. The results, although not unbelievable to me, were shocking to the group of serious Belgian and French wine tasters. Two of the French tasters were well-known winemakers. One of them who asked to remain anonymous proclaimed that in large part, the group of Montrachets was "a crime against France's patrimony." The group overwhelmingly rated the Peter Michael Chardonnay Pointe Rouge the top wine. Several tasters recognized that it was a California wine, but they still felt it was by far the most compelling, complex, and complete wine of the tasting. Second place went to another "ringer," the Domaine Valette Pouilly-Fuisse Le Clos de Monsieur Noly Vieilles Vignes, third place was awarded to the Coche-Dury Corton-Charlemagne another ringer, and fourth place went to yet another "ringer," the 1992 Mount Eden Estate Chardonnay. Of the Montrachets, three producers produced wines that certainly merited outstanding ratings. The fifth place wine was the Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Montrachet; sixth place went to Domaine Lafon's Montrachet; and seventh place was the Domaine Ramonet Montrachet. My numerical ratings generally mirrored the group's, with the Peter Michael Pointe Rouge receiving 97 points, Domaine Valette Pouilly-Fuisse Clos de Monsieur Noly Vieilles Vignes, 95; Coche-Dury Corton-Charlemagne, 96+; Mount Eden 1992 Chardonnay Estate, 94; DRC Montrachet, 93; Domaine Lafon Montrachet, 91+; Domaine Ramonet Montrachet, 90+; and most of the other Montrachets in the mid to upper-eighties, except for the appalling Montrachets from Delagrange-Bachelet and Rene Fleurot. A tropical fruit-scented, disjointed the acidity stuck out as it does in many New World Chardonnays Robert Drouhin Montrachet Marquis de la Guiche was another underachiever. Only four of the Montrachets possessed the depth and richness or the group's top three wines. Perhaps the most remarkable conclusion of this tasting was that none of the Montrachets displayed the complexity of the group's favorite three wines. And let's not hear any whining about these Montrachets needing 5-10, perhaps 15 years of cellaring. That may be the case in vintages such as 1986 or 1995, but the Montrachets are extremely forward, low acid wines except those that appeared to have had far too much acidity added. Too many of them were diluted, disjointed, flabby, and flat compared to the non-Montrachet wines of this tasting. |

Vinous (88)The 1994 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru is an odd wine in what I feel was not Christophe's finest year. It has a strange exotic nose whilst the palate is rustic and meaty, fully matured with an uncharacteristically coarse finish that does not really translate the quality of the vineyard. Drink bottles soon. Tasted at a private lunch in London. |

Wine Advocate (94)This is an interesting as well as great vintage for Latour. As indicated in my barrel tasting report, Latour's 1994 possesses an atypically high percentage of Merlot (27%) in the final blend. Because of this, the wine appears to have a sweeter, more fleshy texture than is typical for a young Latour, but do not make the mistake of thinking this will be a commercially-styled, easy to drink wine. It exhibits an opaque dark ruby/purple color, and a backward, intense textbook nose of walnut and cassis scents complemented by smoky pain grille notes that build in the glass. This full-bodied, powerful, layered Latour reveals high tannin, but no bitterness or astringency. The superb purity, fabulous precision, and remarkable length should ensure 35-40 years of longevity. Readers will find more fat, flesh, and glycerin than usual for a young Latour (save for such great vintages as 1982 and 1990), but don't be deceived, this wine requires 8-10 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2035. Last tasted 1/97 |

Vinous (96)The 1994 Messorio is an unbelievable wine with which to begin this tasting. The aromatics alone are profound. Espresso, mocha, grilled herbs, menthol sweet tobacco and spices are just some of the nuances that waft from the glass in this sublime, totally spellbinding wine. The 1994 is at an intersection where a classic sense of structure meets Maremma warmth, yielding a wine of extraordinary class. The oak is beautifully integrated, and everything about this wine is first-rate. In 1994 Le Macchiole produced just two barrels of Messorio. Odds are I will never get to taste the 1994 again, but I will always remember the time I spent with this bottle. The 1994 is simply unforgettable and an unreal achievement for a wine in its first vintage. Readers fortunate enough to still own bottles are in for a treat. |

An exquisite bottle expressing the apex of Italian viticulture, the Le Macchiole Scrio 1994 is a commanding embodiment of Tuscan wine-making prowess. Crafted in the famous vineyards of Bolgheri, renowned for its fertile soils and remarkable microclimate, this wine is a pure expression of Syrah, a grape varietal traditionally linked with French Rhône Valley, yet beautifully adapted here. Le Macchiole, the producer, implements stringent selection and low yields to retain quality and concentration. Fermented in steel and aged for 18 months in French oak, the Scrio 1994 offers a rich tapestry of blackberry, liquorice, and finely toasted spices, underpinned by an earthy minerality and characteristic Tuscan meatiness. With velvety tannins and a long, alluring finish, it's a monumental red promising a sensory voyage. Appealing to discerning collectors and Syrah lovers, the Le Macchiole Scrio 1994 is a testament to the transformative prowess of Tuscan wine-making in the hands of a devoted producer. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (87-89)Good medium color, with a slightly pale rim. Subdued blackcurrant, spice and cedar nose. Rather musclebound in the mouth and revealing little today, but fresh for the vintage. Finishes with ripe tannins and good length. Rather gently styled for this wine. This wine includes fruit from Latour's young vines, and, in '92 and '94, wine that was not considered strong enough to be bottled as Latour. |

Halliday Wine Companion (97)Dense red-purple; the typically rich and powerful bouquet has layers of dark berry fruit and integrated and balanced oak. What makes it unusual is the distinct hint of chocolate, which appears again on the silkily powerful palate. Here there is an array of all of the fruit flavours one could possibly expect, but once again that touch of dark Swiss chocolate adding an intriguing note. The oak balance and integration is better than any five-year-old Grange I can remember, the tannins perfectly balanced into the bargain. |

Lush, sweet and fragrant in the mouth, with a sappy freshness; clearly made from low yields. Finishes with toothcoating but suave tannins and remarkable persistence; stains the palate with spicy bitter cherry and citric skin flavor. As with the '94, clearly the best wine in the Moueix portfolio on this day. |

Wine Advocate (90)One of the most exotic, complex, and individualistic Brunellos produced, Soldera's just released 1994 Case Basse Riserva offers intense aromatic fireworks. A dark ruby/garnet color is followed by a stunning nose of spice box, cedar, soy, cinnamon, red and black fruits, earth, and truffle scents. Few wines achieve the aromatic intensity and complexity of Soldera's Brunello di Montalcinos. In the mouth, the 1994 is medium to full-bodied, moderately tannic, with sweet ripeness, a firm tannic underpinning, and a pure, concentrated finish. Drink it over the next 15-18 years. |

This is generous for a '94, but the tannins are not as silky-smooth as those in the '95. Intriguing smoke and maple sugar flavor on the finish. |
