五十多年酒的陳年感不俗。酒香算出色的，有著大香檳區的味道而又有乾果及陳年味，很吸引。酒的口感醇厚柔和，酒味的強度複雜感比酒香弱了點，餘韻亦算長，飯後酒來說是很好的。這牌子的酒比較優雅，如果喜歡人頭馬果類的可能會覺得這酒輕了點。

1999 Ermitage La Pavillon, Domaine M. Chapoutier

A deep ruby coloured dry red wine with quite intense aromas of red cherry, pepper spice, iron ore, touch of dried herbs and blood. Medium acidity and alcohol, quite full bodied with quite high tannin, a bit coarse though. On palate, it gives over medium intensity flavours of red cherry, dates, dried herbs, mineral, earth and steel. Longer than medium length with red berry finish. (92)

 隆河的酒香料味真的很出色。這酒的香料味很充足，酒力算強，亦有一定複雜情度，餘韻亦算長，是一枝整體都很不錯的酒.。酒的口感較重，加上重重的單寧，未必人人接受到。

2009 Bonnes Mares, Domaine G. Roumier

Deep ruby coloured with quite high noses of mushroom, redberry, cabbage, rose pedal, mint tea and touch of earth, quite elegant with depth. It is dry with medium acidity, medium alcohol and quite full bodied. The tannin is soft and fine grained at medium level. On palate it has intense flavours of red plum, cabbage, mushroom, licorice, rose pedal and earth. Long length with red plum finish. (95)

優雅及濃郁這兩個詞很難放在一起去形容同一枝酒，但當這同時出現時，那一定是一枝好酒了。這酒的酒香強，而複雜性是一層層的走出來，口感柔順而酒味強，味道的方向比香氣的重了些，餘韻長長，令人回味，有種由淺入深的感覺，會令人有想像空間的，好酒。
