1994 Fonseca: purple black. A little heat mid-palate (less than the T94), very long and consistently-flavoured during that length. Needs so much time. very tannic. Very big wine indeed. Great wine, which might be ready in my lifetime.

Interesting that the lodge tastes from US-labelled bottles (Kobrand Corporation).
