Note di degustazione
Most of the blend was kept in cask at the lodge because he didn’t have enough vat space before blending. They don’t own much of this sadly. Looks so, so much older than the 1991! Several decades older in fact but to taste it’s quite different – it’s admirable. It has tea leaves with lovely balance. (JR)

Although Churchill's 1994 is a rich, full-bodied, powerful port, it does not possess quite the complexity, richness, and overall dimension of the top wines of the vintage. It is made in a slightly drier style, with plenty of guts and tannin. Give it at least a decade of cellaring. It will be one of the more austere (I do not mean that in a pejorative sense) examples of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2025.
