卡莫&喬森成立於1995年，是一間勃艮第式的釀造型酒商，以釀造及銷售法國南部的朗格多克-魯西榮法定產區葡萄酒產品為主。我們的合作夥伴是分佈在朗格 多克-魯西榮產區的各家族式酒莊。酒莊創始人之一的勞倫•卡莫憑藉多年擔任釀酒顧問的經驗，逐步與產區內多個具有代表性的酒農及酒莊建立了長期的互信關係。
兩位公司創始人，勞倫•卡莫與傑洛•喬森對朗格多克-魯西榮產區發展潛力深信不疑。兩人共同的志願推動他們前行，一同釀製，混合與陳釀酒莊的全部葡萄酒款。這也是要向世界證明，在地中海特有的風土人文條件下，可以栽種並釀造出非常優質的葡萄酒；同時他們也渴望讓更多的人瞭解並認同朗格多克-魯西榮產區葡萄酒不為人知的品質與地位。除了堅持在這片風土上釀製出高品質的葡萄酒外，我們還期望憑藉自己對法國南部產區風土人文的理解，並通過自己多年的釀造經驗，陳釀出高品質的傳統風味葡萄酒。

紫紅色，香氣濃郁，搖晃酒杯後，有成熟水果和果醬的香氣。櫻桃李子和無花果 的果香最為明顯。入口口感醇厚，單寧成熟度高，品質精細並伴有自然的回甘。回味時唇齒間留有濃郁的蜜餞香氣。酒體平衡，結尾處留香時間長。此款酒可單獨品 用，也可搭配菜肴。與烤肉，燒肉，乳酪或是巧克力都相得益彰。

Tasting Notes:
Deep purple red colour, almost black. The nose is pronounced with hints of ripe red fruits, almost jammy. Cherry, fig and dried plum dominate. The attack is concentrated but soft. Natural sugar envelops soft tannins. Aromas of candied fruits cover the back of the palate. Nice balance and good length.
