Bottle (12)
- The James Cellar- A pristine cellar of First Growth Bordeaux from the 80’s and 90’s. The Provenance here is second to none. Bid with supreme confidence.
"Chateau Margaux’s 1994 has always been one of the candidates for the 'wine of the vintage.' The wine still has a dense plum/purple color and a big, sweet nose of black fruits intermixed with licorice, camphor, vanilla, and a hint of flowers. The wine is dense and powerful, but the tannins have softened and do not seem as hard and intrusive as they did in the late nineties." (91+ pts. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book 4th Ed., Jan. 2003)
"Very good bright red-ruby color. Sappy, very floral nose hints at toasty oak. Sweet, supple, smooth and oaks in the mouth. A very consistent though fairly tannic wine without the grip or structure of the '95. In fact, tasted after the '95, this seemed much oakier and even a bit monolithic." (90+ pts. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 1996)
