8.6/10

22.04.2006 This location is a must visit if you're in Shanghai. A beautiful centre piece at the riverside of Pudong. Notes. Light in colour. Light wood with spices and citrus. Palate is warm and velvety with dried fruit, wood and spices. Finish is medium to long with smoky wood, citrus and dried fruit.

8.2/10

A lot of wood influence without tipping into bitterness. Wood, smoke, and fruits appear but remain restrained. Pleasant to drink, balanced, good complexity. But for me clearly does not reach the reference vintage 1986 with its various excellent representatives.

Rockley Tasting 1986/87/2000 No. 4. Again impressive what flavor volume is possible at such a low ABV.
