🍊開市大吉 是日宜飲酒

Escoda Sanahuja 'Els Bassotets' 2011
今日年初五，我地正式開市啦！🐶狗年第一個工作日，我地究竟喺公司飲乜？一開工就有幾個客排住隊訂呢支西班牙Escoda Sanahuja 'Els Bassotets' 2011，我地都一於開黎試下先！
呢支以生物動力法釀造嘅orange wine，裝瓶後7年，味道依然驚喜！倒出黎第一杯有陳皮，乾花，乾果嘅香氣，Chenin Blanc竟然搵到呢種味道，已經令人驚喜！Breathe一陣再斟第二杯，竟然比第一杯更Fresh，出現芒果乾，菠蘿乾同蜜蠟嘅果香，令人聯想到濃厚誘人嘅甜酒，但入口又有開胃嘅酸度，仲搵到八仙果嘅味道！
一支西班牙人釀造嘅酒，竟然搵到咁多中式乾果嘅味道，不經過濾，由大自然帶黎嘅複雜感，既矛盾卻又可愛，難怪近年咁多酒迷都會熱烈追捧自然酒啦！

【🍊The wine to enjoy on our first working day: Escoda Sanahuja 'Els Bassotets' 2011】
Today is the fifth day of Lunar New Year and we are back to work! Which bottle of wine did we enjoy? With several orders of Escoda Sanahuja 'Els Bassotets' 2011 on our first day of work in the Year of the Dog🐶, we decided to open it to treat ourselves!
This biodynamic orange wine still surprised us after 7 years, just like its siblings El Bassots from the same winery. The aroma of the glass reminded us of the sun-dried tangerine peels and dried flower, which is a nice surprise to be found in Chenin Blanc. After letting the wine breathe for a while, it’s even fresher with the fruitiness of dried mangoes, dried pineapples and beeswax, similar to the aromas commonly found in dessert wines. Interestingly, following the appetizing acidity on the palate, the finish had a hint of licorice and menthol!
The Spanish winery stunned our palate with the “very Chinese-style” taste. As an unfiltered wine, the essence of the nature enhanced the complexity . All the elements evolved into a lovely contradiction. That’s why natural wines have become a hot trend for wine lovers!
