A sweet, soft, commercially-styled wine, the 1994 offers a medium deep ruby color, a smoky, berry-scented nose, supple, fruity flavors, medium body, no hard tannin (a rarity for a 1994), and an easy to understand finish. Drink it over the next 4-8 years.

Solid Talbot, this wine shows layers of ripe fruit and tobacco on the nose. Medium-bodied, with medium tannins and good fruit flavors. Drink or hold.James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1997
