1962 Marques de Riscal Rioja Reserva

This dry red wine still has barely medium intensity ruby colour, with quite intense noses of red cherry, earth, tea leaves, dates and touch of dried herbs. It also has barely medium acidity and alcohol. Bit lighter than medium bodied with fine grained tannin. On palate it has red cherry, tea and dried herbs flavours and medium length. (88) Surprisingly drinkable with fruit flavours, which shows its strength.

厲害。五十多年的酒，仍有一些果味。酒當然是向下行的了，但有這表現亦顯示出這酒年青時是多強勁。酒的口感圓潤柔滑的，但其他方面來說當然沒有什麼可以大加讚揚，但品飲這酒是在品嚐歷史。

2001 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva, Le Chiuse

Deep ruby colour with fairly high intensity aromas of red cherry, breakfast tea, licorice, strawberry jam and touch of mint and earth. It is dry with medium sour acidity, medium alcohol and bodied with fair high fine grained tannin. On palate it gives slightly over medium flavours of wild red cherry, tea leaves, licorice and damp wood. Longer than medium length with red cherry finish. (92) Typical and rich.

這個地方的酒很少令失望的，這支亦是枝高於水平之作。像是教科書一樣的有著品種標誌性的酒香及酒味。酒力及複雜性也不錯，餘韻亦長，好飲。單寧仍重一 點，陳年多些應該會好一些。
