Le Lion de La Fleur de Bouard 2012

屬於家族中最年輕的一款酒，Le Lion de La Fleur de Bouard 是由酒莊的年輕葡萄樹釀製，由 2011 年開始，便成為 Château La Fleur de Boüard 的副牌酒。它以和主牌酒一樣的方式，在倒轉的尖筒形大缸內輕柔地發酵，並只借助地心吸力。

Le Lion de La Fleur de Boüard 柔滑有力量，展現由12個月精心陳年而帶出的強勁果味。陳年運用15%新木桶，給予葡萄酒優雅的木桶感覺。

The last born in the family, Le Lion de La Fleur de Boüard is made from the estate’s young vines. It has been Château La Fleur de Boüard’s second wine since 2011. It is gently fermented in the same way as the main wine in inverted truncated cone-shaped tanks before being vinified using gravity alone.

Le Lion de La Fleur de Boüard is smooth and big, and expresses intense fruit highlighted by careful ageing for 12 months, with 15% of the wine residing in new oak barrels, which imparts elegant woody notes. It is a marvellous match with braised beef, calf’s head in vinaigrette or glazed pork ribs.
