風格較輕柔一點，但不失香氣的強度和複雜性。整體酒力算強，餘韻亦長，幾好飲，但不太像有近 40 年的陳年。

可以用猛烈來形容。酒香已經令人感到有點熱力，香氣算強而有一定複雜性。酒在口中味道較簡單了些。酒精感強，有點烈。餘韻長。好 MAN 的。不錯。

 介乎花果與田土的平衡味道中，這酒頗誘人。強勁的香氣和酒味，長長的餘韻，再加上重的單寧，這酒似乎還有一段長時間發展。現在飲已經很不錯，好味道。陳多幾年會更好。

 比想像中好飲多了。酒經過了廿七年仍很濃郁。單寧仍強，餘韻長，如果複雜性高些會更好。另一方面要注意的是它強勁的單寧，酒可以多放一段時間，等待單寧馴化，但到時又要希望枝酒的味道不致散掉。現飲不錯，七年後相信仍可以。

被這酒的花果味引致我感到有點驚艷。很香，但仍有點新的，就像一籃剛採下的花果香草的，帶著點點泥土一樣。酒力亦強，餘韻算長，好好飲，放多幾年應該更好。

 NSG 酒、這年份、這表現算不錯了。酒的香料味很好，亦展現了這村的一點特色，酒在口中的力度及複雜性下降了，所以扣了些分。這酒口感很豐厚，有點重，但整體不錯，值不值是另一回事了。

大勇的狀態。酒的風華正盛，香氣強勁複雜，酒的花果味亦跟木桶味相輔相乘。酒力強餘韻亦算長，好飲，是一枝佳釀，應該慢慢品嚐，以這狀態這酒仍有頗長的品飲時間。

1962 Marques de Riscal Rioja Reserva

厲害。五十多年的酒，仍有一些果味。酒當然是向下行的了，但有這表現亦顯示出這酒年青時是多強勁。酒的口感圓潤柔滑的，但其他方面來說當然沒有什麼可以大加讚揚，但品飲這酒是在品嚐歷史。

酒很香，花香味很出眾，大香檳區特色。酒有一定陳年感，但不像很長很長。香氣複雜性不錯，只是在口中差了點。餘韻算長，酒味亦有點轉化，不錯。

酒香不錯，強而有一定複雜性，泥土及樹木感較重，香味偏重方向一點。酒體平衡，只是酒味在口中強度與複雜性下降了。餘韻算長，整體不錯，可口的酒品。

POMEROL 區的酒，2003年的熱，造出這強勁濃厚的果感。酒香亦有一定複雜性。可是酒在口中複雜性減少了。餘韻亦沒有想像中長。總體來說，這酒的醬果感很強，果味很足，但不至於美國酒咁爆。

 味道公整平衡可口，酒力強而餘韻長。擺到明是一枝好酒的。酸度足而不削，很醒神。POL ROGER 的酒不會給與你很有特色的感覺，但永遠令人覺得公整平衡，好味道的，亦很難挑剔。
