Decanter Mag, Jan 15 - Mayson on 1994

Post by flash_uk »

Richard M blind tasted 23 ports from the 94 vintage. Interesting to see the GC and SW doing well in the scoring, as I thought both were very good when we tasted at Bordeaux Index. Also interesting that the 18 ports which get a score/mention do not include Noval.

Based on the thirty minute conversation Jo and I have just had with our 16 year old boy over dinner we could perhaps re-name this "The Teenage Boy Conversation Thread".
