Re: 1994 Noval
I just hate 1990s corks. Bloody Fonseca cork exploded into tiny fragments, even after being loosened with the JDAW cork impeller. Ditto my Warre cork, but Martinez and Noval came clean. All three opened 23:30. Edit: N, W, Mz — all decanted 07:45. N94 , opened 23:30 the night before, decanted 07:45:...

Re: 1994 Fonseca
Cr94: dark dark red; I failed to note opacity. Very very closed, mid-weight, dry, and presented a bit simple. It needs time, at least ½ a decade. It might yet come very good, but not on this night.

Re: 1994 Taylor
T94: glorious dark dark red, 75% opaque. Big, closed, huge, and surprisingly dry. Please wait at least five years.

Re: 1994 Croft
Cr94: dark dark red, 80% opaque. Lovely dark fruits, but slightly simple, and slightly hollow. As with many bottles this evening, could be drunk with pleasure, but not of the greats.
