Domaine de la Pousse d’Or Corton Clos Du Roi Grand Cru 2015 拉魄斯莊園科爾登特級園國王園《風土系酒款 - TF721A》

Domaine de la Pousse d’Or 一直是藏家這幾十年來布根地的收藏臻品，能夠充分展現布根地神聖的風土。酒莊始於1964年，位於 Volnay 村內的一家頂尖的代表酒廠之一，早在1855年這塊田 En Bousse d'Or曾與特級園 Clos de Tart 同屬 DRC 前主人Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet 所有，後來由傳奇釀酒師 Gerard Potel 從中收購將其打造成了 Volnay 村內的明星酒莊，後來 Gérard Potel過世後由企業家 Patrick Landanger 於1997年購入。新主人Patrick Landanger 原本打算聘請專人打理，曾一度不滿意而換掉5位釀酒師，後來決定親自接任釀酒師，去到 Beaune 學習釀酒，隨後在 Puligny-Montrachet, Corton, Chambolle-Musigny, Clos de la Roche, 購入名園，包括世紀名園愛侶園 Les Amoureuses, Bonnes-Mares, Chevalier-Montrachet 等特級園，如今莊園由17公頃經過生物動力法種植的葡萄園組成，包括5個特級園，11個一級園，其中3個是獨佔園Clos de la Bousse d'Or, Clos des 60 Ouvrées, Clos d'Audignac，成為同時在 Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune 擁有多塊優質葡萄園的重量級酒莊。

在葡萄園管理上，Domaine de la Pousse d'Or早在Nicolas Potel 時期已經舖下了 Bio-dynamic 的方向，其後Patrcik 跟隨，所有葡萄園工作都按著陰曆行事，2012 年所有葡萄園全面施行生物動力法 ，到 2018 年終取得 Demeter 認証，葡萄園多年不使用任何殺蟲除草劑。而酒莊更添置光學篩選葡萄機器 Vistalys ，全布根地只有三家釀做者擁有，分別係 Louis Jadot 、Vincent Girardin 及 Pousse d'Or ，這台機器的造價由港幣五六十萬到過百萬不等，足見証 Patrick 對 Domaine de la Pousse d'Or 投資的力度。

There is apronounced ripeness to the less elegant and much more sauvage-inflected aromasof cassis, plum liqueur, freshly turned earth and forest floor nuances. Thepalate impression though is more like that of the Bressandes in that it'smuscular yet reasonably refined while evidencing focused power on thewell-balanced and gorgeously persistent finish. I very much like the mouth feelthanks to the dense but fine-grained tannins and this should also amply rewardextended cellaring.

🏅  Vinous 92-95 pts

Full ruby. Austere nose hints at blackfruits, licorice and soil tones, with a violet element emerging with air. Broadand deep but utterly primary and unforthcoming. The dark fruit flavors showedincreasing creaminess as the wine opened in the glass, but this very firmlystructured wine will need extended aging to absorb its substantialtongue-coating tannins and to reveal its full personality. The longest of these2015s to this point.

The 2015 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru hasmore finesse than the premier crus from Volnay and Pommard that preceded itduring my tasting at the domaine, quite floral with pure dark black cherry andhints of anise developing with aeration. The palate has a gentle grip in themouth. The tannins feel firm lending this masculinity, although there appearsto be sufficient fruit to back it up. There is pleasant saline aftertaste insitu although I would like to see more finesse developing during the remainderof its barrel maturation.
