This was the driest year since 1945, except for 1961. We used to say it was a bit 'reined in', a touch 'Protestant' even, but now it is much more 'Catholic' and uninhibited! Intense, warm leaves nose, the 'maquis', or scented, wild undergrowth, in full bloom. Immensely tempting. Great red fruit taste, brimming over with health and vivacity. Lovely silky finish. A superb mouthful and signature Petrus, hardly surprising in an excellent year for Merlot. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

這是自1945年以來波爾多最乾旱的年份(除了1961年以外)。我們曾經認為此酒有點「拘緊」,並有一抹的「新教徒」嚴肅的風格。不過現在卻有「天主教徒」的色彩,而且毫不羞怯!她有一股強勁、溫潤葉子般的香氣,又有茂盛密林或野生矮樹林的撲鼻薰香,誘得人心癢難當。出色的紅肉果子味道,表現出健碩佳美、精神煥發的水準。餘韻柔順如絲。絕佳的口感,在這個優秀的梅樂葡萄年份是理所當然的。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)

Provenance
Immersed in the vibrant world of hospitality and gastronomy from a young age, the collector has cultivated a sophisticated palate, a deep appreciation for classic wines, and an unwavering commitment to quality. A successful entrepreneur and esteemed wine connoisseur, he is also renowned as a hotel and restaurant operator. His discerning taste shines through in this exceptional collection.
This remarkable collection features some of the most exquisite Bordeaux Classified Growths and gems from legendary vintages such as Mouton Rothschild 1982, Latour 1982 and Petrus 1989. It also includes distinguished Champagnes from renowned houses such as Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs 1995 and Krug Clos du Mesnil 1990. Complementing these are wines from the iconic Domaine de la Romanée-Conti from 1991 and 1993. Offered in generous parcel quantities, this collection is a true celebration of elegance, tradition, and excellence.
Most of the collection has been acquired over the past three decades from UK and local wine merchants. Almost 100% of the wines were purchased more than 20 years ago. Vintage 1995 and onwards such as Mouton Rothschild and Comte de Champagne were mostly ordered and purchased on release in parcel quantities. The wines have been professionally stored in two professional, temperature-controlled cellars in Taipei since.
