只聞酒香已知是好酒的東西。酒香強烈複雜有層次。酒的發展好，但仍有些潛力可再陳放，餘韻長而濃厚，酒味在口中與酒香頗一致，好飲，令人回味。

 花果香造得很好的酒。果味很熟，熟得有點像果汁糖似的。強度足、複雜性強，餘韻亦算長。好飲，只是酒味的複雜性欠了點，但其果實感令人口感滿滿，十分滿足的。是一枝直白表現的高品質酒。

蕭芳芳的均衡優雅感很不錯。酒香較隱約，但複雜性充足，酒味與酒體的平衡好，只是酒在口中轉為單調了點，餘韻也算長，好飲，但值不值就有點見仁見智了。

酒香複雜細緻，餘韻亦算長，酒味與酒香頗一致。口感較柔軟，單寧也算順滑，幾好飲。但可能是年份問題吧，喝這酒時令我想起的是他2000年的副牌酒。究竟是2000年的副牌酒太好還是2001年的混合得太似呢?
