If the three older wines are more cerebral than just plain delicious, the 1994 is, to us, something of a masterpiece. This does most definitely drink like a dessert wine... a dessert wine with everything turned up, very loud. This is kaleidoscopic, with the more typical honeyed and dried-stone-fruit notes, yet for those paying attention, there is an undercurrent of red-berry fruit, offering some hints as to its Pinot Noir core. This is a stunning wine, a bizarro cultural masterpiece that pushes all expectations, with 11% alcohol, 113 grams of RS and 12 grams of acid. This is a wine that can certainly be open and drank over a number of days if not weeks. At 30 years old, it is still an infant. Cellar for another 30 years no problem.
