| Yo VV i didn't see the label that night you put these in my car. You have at least 3 different Longueville to choose from.
1994 Comtesse de Lalande Pichon-Longueville Parker: 91pts 1994 Pichon-Longueville Baron Parker: 88 pts 1994 Les Tourelles de Longueville Parker: 74-76 pts
Let me know wich one you bought and I can give you some detailed notes from Parker. I have not personally had the 94's. | | | "Everyday is worthy of a glass of sparkling wine" - Andrea Immer MS | |

| Not sure if you have the tasting notes, but here goes:
1994 Pichon-Longueville Baron Pichon-Longueville Baron Pauillac, Bordeaux, France Bordeaux Blend (a dry red table wine) Source Reviewer Rating Maturity Cost Wine Advocate #109 (Feb 1997) Robert Parker 88 points Drink 1999-2014 $28.00 Dark ruby/purple-colored, with a crushed, pure cassis aroma, this excellent, medium to full-bodied wine reveals sweet fruit on the attack, plenty of tannin, but not the inner-core of richness and density exhibited by such other 1994 Pauillacs as Pichon-Lalande, Grand-Puy-Lacoste, and Pontet-Canet. To its credit, the 1994 Pichon-Baron does not reveal any vegetal notes. It should evolve nicely for 10-15 years, representing an attractive, well-made, medium-bodied, classically rendered Bordeaux. Anticipated maturity: 1999-2014.
