明顯地少了點以前 KRUG NV那種老酒味，這樣有版本號碼的 NV 較清爽，多了些清新，少了些醇厚。果味及礦物味更突出，酒酸的性質也較銳利，公整而爽朗，中上水平，但我個人還是較喜歡舊的NV。

2016 Vosne Romanee 1er Cru Les Malconsorts, Domaine Francois Lamarche

It is dry with medium acidity, medium alcohol and bodied with medium soft tannin. On palate it gives quite intense flavours of red cherry, strawberry, rose tea and licorice. Close to long length with red cherry finish. (93) Good balance of fruitiness and spiciness. Smooth when drinking at this youth.

這酒莊2010年左右轉人之後造得好咗，而且D酒仲似乎可以早飲D，這酒有著高水平的質量，估唔到的是只是有年已很啱飲。酒的果香及香料味均衡，只是在口中的複雜性不及香氣。酒的柔滑度也是有點驚喜的，好喝。

清、爽、甜美果實，講完！真係講完。因為這酒十分清爽直接，完全像一枝毫不加工，直接由葡萄釀造出來的產品，生果酒似的，可以大大口喝的酒。這也是一個有趣的品飲經驗。

頗重口的感覺。酒在一點濃濃的醬果及重重的泥土味中來來回回，口感較重，田土及品種特色明顯，酒力和複雜性、甚至餘韻也是中上水平，好酒來的。只是我個人覺得有點過重。
