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.

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.
