好少用甜美來形容乾白酒,但這枝可以。生果感很好,酒的強度不論酒香及酒味也強,而且有著多樣的複雜性,雖然偏向果感方面多一些,香料味不及果香。餘韻亦長,好喝,會吸引你不斷喝的,好毒。

很工整,頗重礦物感,酒體亦很重,攪到有點不太似CHABLIS,酒香很清純,但一點也不簡單,複雜性好。酒味在口中簡單了些,複雜性略嫌少了點,但那長長的餘韻仍會話你知它的質素。

19年的酒,還很濃很醬果的。酒的強度不錯,亦有一定複雜性和像是標誌性的風味,酒的風格仍是大大舊,現在飲已經很不錯,但還可陳年一段時間,是一枝可佐餐或剩飲的酒。這表現也指出2002年的波爾多也不是一個差的年份。

也是有著一貫的醬果感,酒仍是很年青,但香料味已開始發揮出來,特別是在口中的時候。酒力強,複雜性仍需時間展現,餘韻亦長,好酒一枝。酒的香料味在口中發展似乎比香氣快,相信過幾年應該會開始要密切注意適飲期。

2019 Gris de Koshu 甲州

Medium lemon green coloured with quite intense noses of pear, lemon, white flower and trace of melon, it is dry with medium refreshing acidity, medium bodied and alcohol. On palate it has medium intensity flavours of pear, lime, honeysuckle and trace of melon. Barely over medium lenght with pear finish. (89) Straight and fresh, fruity wine with significant pear type flavour.

清新可口,爽爽的梨汁感覺。酒的香味及口味偏向清淡的水果感,以清香為主的。酒身比想像中厚,酒味在口中比香氣差了些,但仍算不錯,特別是配沙律類偏向少調味的食物。餘韻亦算合格,是一枝不錯的食物酒,但剩飲的話相信會淡了點。

1969 L'Heraud Grande Champagne Cognac

A medium copper coloured dry cognac with pronounced aromas of jasmine, dates, raisin, caramel, dried apricot, orange jam, honey, vanilla and touch of pine wood, very complex noses. Water brings out further floral notes but dilutes others. Medium acidity and well integrated alcohol, full bodied as well. On palate it gives quite intense flavours of orange, dates, apricots, bitter almond and vanilla. Fairly long length with apricot and vanilla finish. (94) Good nose with a bit change in flavour on palate. Better not to add any water.

 很精彩的香氣。以複雜性來說是數一數二的。加水後反而溝淡了一些。酒力算強,餘韻亦長,是一枝佳釀,口感豐滿,香料味及乾果味突出,好喝。奇怪的是這酒一加冰或水便溝淡了不少,對酒的表現大打折扣,所以不建議加冰。

在果味與香料味徘徊之間,酒香由果味帶頭,入口後香料味反而走出來似的。品種風格也算突出,酒力強,有一定複雜性,餘韻亦長,好喝。口感重,尚需一些時間,想信可以再陳年一下。

這村的酒越來越沒有以前那種油油膩膩的牛油感,但在這酒內仍然找到一點,有點開心。酒很四正,梅索村的風格,酒香較酒味弱,酒在口中的表現好得多,餘韻亦算長,好喝的餐酒,好味。

發展不錯,成熟的香檳。酒的力度一般,酸度足,餘韻比想像中長,交到貨的。酒味較酒香發展得快,味道較熟,絕對啱飲。除非想陳到變歴史收藏,否則盡情喝吧!

變成一枝白酒了,不過仍不至於老去。酒的發展已經完全了,十分成熟。酒力不錯,沒有了香檳的氣泡,換來的是豐厚的酒體,另有一番滋味。酒的複雜性不算很出眾,餘韻尚算合格,不錯。喝的是歷史,是另一種品飲和欣賞的角度。
