Les Asteries 2008 (RP:93)

FRR000420

6 items left

此單一葡萄田葡萄酒是由一公頃的 Astéries (石塊石灰石)土壤製成,位於 Château Fonroque 和 Clos Fourtet 之間,葡萄樹能在 1956 年的霜雪存活過來,樹齡至今已有近 80 年,葡萄樹包括 Merlot 和 Cabernet Franc,方便日後混釀。

與同酒莊的酒不同, Les Astéries 展現非一般的礦物性格,強調像石塊的副土壤,此酒是葡萄園的酒多於釀酒師的酒。

十分精致,此深紫色的葡萄酒展現馬鞍皮革、櫻桃、黑加侖子、甘草和香草盒子。中度至飽滿酒體,成熟單寧,結果豐腴,口感和收結均悠長、多層次。此酒極為限量,可以在未來10至15年享用。

This Single Vineyard wine is made from a single hectare on 'Astéries' (rock limestone) soil between Château Fonroque and Clos Fourtet. The vines survived the frost of 1956 and are up to eighty years old, 'Panachéed' in the old style (Merlot interspersed with Cabernet Franc to ensure easy blending in the days before pumps).
Unlike most of the wines of the Château, Les Astéries exhibits a strain of minerality that emphasises the rock like sub-soil. The wine is pure vineyard rather than a 'winemaker's' wine.

Tasting Notes:
A superb effort, the dense purple-colored 2008 offers a beautiful nose of new saddle leather, kirsch, black currants, licorice and spice box, medium to full body, ripe tannins, a luscious texture and a long, layered mouthfeel and finish. Sadly, this beauty is very limited in availability. It should drink well for 10-15 years.
