Chateau Croix-Mouton 2016

FRR0773

Croix-Mouton的葡萄酒旨在為人帶來愉悅,無需經過陳年就已經有出色表現。幾乎完全是由Merlot所釀造,口味豐厚濃郁,易於飲用同時保持精緻,口感上展現出驚艷的新鮮紅色水果味道。在初次發布後,很快就被波爾多葡萄酒專家們認證其物超所值。

Château Croix Mouton位於Lugon鎮,地處“卡尼島”(Ile de Carney)的黏土上。 環境充滿田園風情,具有真正的鄉村魅力,在朦朧的Dordogne河上的清晨日出期間收割葡萄,帆船偶爾流經並喚醒平靜的河面。

創始人Jean-Philippe Janoueix來自受人尊敬的波爾多釀酒王國。家族由Joseph Janoueix於1898年創立,Jean-Philippe Janoueix於1994年成立了自己的分支。

酒標上的“M”每年都會改變字形和顏色,以反映該年份的獨特個性。

Croix Mouton produces wines intended for pleasure, and excellent while still young. Almost entirely Merlot driven, they are full bodied and rich in flavour, easy to drink but with finesse and a stunning display of fresh red fruit on the palate. After the release of its first vintage, Château Croix Mouton was very quickly recognised by Bordeaux wine experts as being excellent value for money.

Château Croix Mouton is positioned in the commune of Lugon, on the clay soils of ‘Ile de Carney’. The setting is bucolic with true rural charm, and during the harvest period we take in the early-morning sunrise over the misty Dordogne river from the winery. As the day passes, sail boats and cruisers occasionally glide past, punctuating the still calm.

Founder Jean-Philippe Janoueix comes from the revered Bordeaux winemaking dynasty. The family business was created in 1898 by Joseph Janoueix, with Jean-Philippe Janoueix establishing his own branch of the business in 1994.

The ‘M’ on Château Croix Mouton’s label is special. It changes shape and colour each year to reflect the personality of each vintage.

Tasting Notes: 
The 2016 Croix Mouton has an attractive, perfumed, floral bouquet with crushed violet petals infusing the ripe black cherry and cassis fruit. I appreciate the elegance on display here. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, well judged acidity, a pleasant saline and black olive note surfacing towards the fresh finish. This Bordeaux Supérieur from Jean-Philippe Janoueix can often punch above its class and the 2016 is one of those.
