1997 Cote Rotie La Landonne, E. Guigal

A deep purple dry red wine with pronounced aromas of black plum, blackberries, smoke, pepper, rosted herb, licorice evolving to game and meaty. It has medium acidity and alcohol. Quite full bodied with medium fine-grained tannin. On palate it gives higher than medium flavours of pepper, black cherry, licorice smoke. Long length with blackberries and spicy finish. (92) Good complexity and intense but the complexity cannot bring from nose to palate. Good one.

如果只係計酒的香氣，呢枝酒絕對值95分以上。但此複雜的酒香到口後變得無咁精彩。口感仍好，餘韻亦長，好酒一枝。

1989 Cote Rotie La Turque, E. Guigal

A deep purple coloured wine with barely higher than medium nose of black cherry, plum, black pepper, smoke, leather and earth. It is dry with medium acidity and alcohol. Full bodied with quite high soft and fine tannin. Quite intense flavours of red cherry, dried herbs, licorice but a bit watery texture. Long length with subtle black plum finish. (92) Impressive length as the fruit lingers long but the mouthfeel is a bit watery and the palate is a bit simple. Good nose tho.

以 LA LA LA 來說這枝水準中等，酒香複雜性不錯但口感較薄，甚至有點水水地。餘韻悠長，果味隱約在咽喉停留，足證其質素。

2009 Condrieu la Doriane, E. Guigal

A medium lemon coloured wine with some legs. Medium nose of perfume, peach, floral, apricot and honey. It is dry with medium acidity and body. A little bit high in alcohol with medium intensity lime, citrus peel, floral and mineral. Medium length with zesty citrus peel finish. (90) Nose better than palate, and a bit thin for a wine made of Viognier.

Viognier 做的酒不是應該較厚身的嗎? 這酒聞時令人感到歡欣舒暢，但喝下去時有一點薄，酒精感亦較強......
