老酒的靭性真係表露無遺。酒的花果感仍有，但是可以想像的退卻，只是比想像中仍保留得多。酒已醇化柔順，仍有一點點的強度，酒味在口中完全轉化至老酒感覺。喝得很舒服，不過餘韻有點散，四十幾年有這表現也是可喜的。

2014 Clos Vougeot, Domaine Laurent Roumier

A deep ruby coloured dry red wine with close to pronounced level aromas of rose perfume, red berry, plum, anise, cedar and trace of cinnamon, nutmeg, very spicy. It is dry with medium acidity and alcohol, medium bodied with soft medium tannin, a bit greenness though. The flavour intensity is at medium plus level with flavours of rose, red cherry, licorice and cedar. Fairly long length with red cherry finish. (92) Spiciness fading on palate.

聞的時候，酒的香餘真是很好，又強又複雜，特別是香料味，好像入了一個香料貨倉似的。年份問題，酒的單寧有點青，但不太大問題。問題是在酒味，入口後酒的香料味散却不少，但又不是散晒，餘韻亦算長，幾好飲，不過口中表現真的有點怪。

Bollinger PNVZ16 Champagne

This champagne has medium intensity lemon colour. On nose it gives medium intensity aromas of lemon, chalk, steel, green apple and trace of toasted bread. Dry with medium acidity and alcohol, quite full bodied and creamy mousse. On palate it gives medium intensity flavours of lemon, red apple, wet stone, yeast and touch of nuttiness. Longer than medium length with citrus peel finish. (90) Interesting palate.

家陣都唔知係咪潮流，個個人都造到D香檳爽爽口口咁。BOLLINGER 呢個系列一早已經知係咁，但係有時真係懷念佢舊時的產品。這個以BOLLINGER來說是中規中矩的，唯一要讚的是酒在口中酒味有一些變化，幾有趣，可口的香檳，但現在PN15比較好一點。

2019 Kumeu River Estate Chardonnay

A dry white chardonnay with light lemon colour and quite intense aromas of lemon, pear, vanilla, white flower and touch of nuttiness. Medium acidity, alcohol and bodied with quite intense aromas of lemon, peach, vanilla and bitter lemon. Medium length with bitter lemon finish. (89) A simple crisp and sharp chardonnay.

清清爽爽的開飯酒，酒的強度很好，不論酒香或酒味也是，餘韻亦合格，雖然比我想像中短了點。清新直接的一款用餐酒，吃飯不錯，剩飲的話我會覺得有點寡。
