2014 La Tache, Domaine de la Romanee Conti

A deep ruby coloured dry red wine with pronounced aromas of rose pedal, raspberry, redberry jam, strawberry field, smoky spice, earth, trace of mushroom and meat, very complex. Medium acidity, alcohol and quite full bodied. The tannin is at medium level, fine grained but a touch of greenness. On palate it gives quite pronounced flavours of raspberry, strawberry, rose tea, earth, mushroom and meat. Long length with raspberry finish. (94) Fresh, juicy with full complexity at the back. Very enjoyable, tho it still has long way to go.

 好好飲。早喝這類酒一定是充滿鮮果的感覺。酒有著混合各種情況的果實感，由野果到熟果到醬果都齊，此外再加上一層層的香料複雜性，引人入勝的酒味。餘韻亦長，味道範圍很廣，令人喝得陶醉，唯一是年份問題，單寧有點點青，希望時間可以幫到一下。現在飲已經很好，不過相信放下會更精彩。

 同酒莊同水平的一同試，粉紅香檳給出了另一個風格。酒的強度及複雜性已經不用多說，酒的酸度足，而且有著這酒莊給我的印象那種尖削感。酒味因粉紅香檳關係多了紅果的特色，這特色在口中轉化多了一種微微的、像成熟紅酒的感覺，是另一種風味。很特別的品飲經驗。無得頂。

1996 Cristal Vinotheque

Medium lemon in colour with lemon attack and pronounced noses of honey, ripe apple, bread, mineral, steel and touch of caramel cream at the back. It is dry with over medium intensity but soft acidity, quite full bodied with medium alcohol and creamy mouthfeel. On palate, it gives quite intense flavours of honey, chalk, steel, red apple, mineral and trace of saline. Long length, very delicate and fine but concentrated in flavours. (96)

 優雅得來而有著強勁的酒味，直係一D都唔易㗎葉師傅。這酒的香氣由一倒酒已飄來，聞起來層次和強度鮮明，酒的酸度不太有著以前的尖削感，而是較柔順。酒味強、口感豐滿，很好喝。酒在口中仍有著其複雜性，餘韻長，一流的表現。是一枝難得的佳釀。

1989 Vega Sicilla Unico

A deep ruby coloured dry red wine with quite intense aromas of black plum, black cherry, raspberry, dried strawberry, prune, dates, sweet vanilla and licorice, quite jammy. Medium acidity and alcohol, full bodied with over medium tannin. The flavour intensity is quite high with flavours of black plum, strawberry jam, vanilla and warm earth. Long length with dried plum finish. (93) Too rich and full.

這些酒的口感真的很濃，強強的乾果口味，很重口。這表現了酒力的強勁 ，餘韻長長，力量型之選。有著這樣的醬果感，有點膩。已經三十多年仍有這表現，真的可以陳很夠，熟優熟劣真是見人見智了。好喝的，但不會令人不斷的斟來喝。

1990 Clos Des Lambrays, Domaine F & L Saier

Deep ruby coloured with over medium intensity noses of black cherry, rose, earth, licorice, damp wood and touch of mint leaf, it is dry with medium acidity, medium alcohol and bodied. Soft ripe tannin at medium level with medium intensity flavours of black cherry, licorice, tea and hints of hay. Fairly long length with black cherry finish. (91) Good mouthfeel but  bit simple on palate at this level.

較重的泥土方面的表現，但仍存在著一定的花果香。酒的發展已成熟，口感很好，酒的複雜性在口中不及酒香，餘韻亦長，是一枝中上水平的酒品。好喝。
