Château Gilbert & Gaillard 'Pour les Amis' 2019

FRR1558


2015 年有機栽培
Grown organically since 2015


Chateau Gilbert & Gaillard的誕生,有賴兩位葡萄酒發燒友,兼著名酒評家Francois Gilbert及Philippe Gaillard的努力。兩人自1991年起,出版了行銷五大洲的Gilbert & Gaillard雜誌,將他們的酒評及葡萄酒知識與酒迷分享。多年來走訪世界各地的經驗、累積的專業知識,以及對葡萄酒的熱誠,促使他們於南法的Saint-Chinian及Languedoc成立了Chateau Gilbert & Gaillard。

Gilbert作為釀酒家族之子,而Gaillard作為主力研究釀酒風土的地理學博士,兩人都對大自然尤其尊重。他們的釀酒哲學,就是希望將南部產區Chinian,以石灰岩為主的獨特風土,帶到飲家的酒杯中,並原原本本的將葡萄酒中的清新、細緻與優雅表達出來。

Saint-Chinian重現漸被遺忘,反璞歸真的叢林氣息。”Pour Les Amis” 解作"for friends",這葡萄酒適合與朋友分享。當風土逐漸變成一些酒莊的宣傳技倆,那風土是真是假,還需親身飲一口才明白。再從酒體裡找尋,風味究竟屬於風土,橡木還是葡萄。這酒令人像重遇多年的知己,不絢爛璀璨,卻會令你共鳴。

Chateau Gilbert & Gaillard was born from the efforts of two wine enthusiasts and wine critics, Francois Gilbert and Philippe Gaillard. In 1991, they started publishing wine magazine Gilbert & Gaillard to share their wine critics and knowledge with wine lovers. The magazine is now available on 5 continents. Their years of experiences of travelling around the world and the professional knowledge of wine, as well as their passion for wine help them establish Chateau Gilbert & Gaillard in Saint-Chinian and Languedoc. Gilbert, as the son of the winemaker’s family , and Gaillard, as a doctor in Geography who specializes in the study of wine terroirs, accentuate the importance of nature. The winemaking philosophy of the Chateau is to transcribe the terroir of Chinian to the consumer, from the vine to the glass, keeping all these features namely, the freshness, the finesse and elegance.

Saint-Chinian truly reflects the gradually-forgotten notes of garrigues. “Pour Les Amis” means “for friends, this wine is “for friends”. Terroirs have become just promotional gimmicks in some wineries. To distinguish whether the terroirs is real or not, what a drinker can do is to take a sip. The taste may be from terroirs, oak or grapes. This wine is like an old friend who was gone for ages. It may not be glorious, but its simplicity and genuineness will arouse echo in your minds.
