Hi Snoopy, and welcome to the Wine Board. The wines are well worth drinking, except the Cheval Blanc may be questionable. As for value (which we hate to talk about) the 1994 Bordeaux vintage was so, so. However, we are talking about a First Growth here, which is almost always wonderful. It is currently selling at various points around the world for $50 - $250 per 750ml bottle. The Cheval, for reasons we can't begin to understand is going for $100 - $400. Single bottles are very hard to unload at auction or otherwise. Would try the Cheval ASAP, and enjoy the Mouton over the next ten years.

The last I seen the 94' Mouton, was a few years ago, and it was being offered in my area for $130 a bottle retail. But even in an off year, the Mouton is a wonderful wine. I recently drank a 92' and it was a very, very pleasant experience. If you were closer, I'd consider buying the whole case off of you, if the price was right.
