✨Fronsac生產的葡萄酒擁有強大的陳年實力
✨Chateau Dalem是此地最具代表性的酒莊,也是波爾多歷史最悠久的酒莊之一
🔎酒莊建於1610年。第一代擁有人Michel Rullier在1955年將釀酒技術現代化,目的是提高葡萄酒的品質,促進國際化。而他的女兒Brigitte在2002年正式接棒,運用她多年跟隨老父一起打理葡萄園的經驗,慢慢地建立她的個人團隊,並一心向國際出發,推動她的葡萄酒理念💪
🙎 Brigitte 不主張過份用木桶和浸漬,覺得一切要適可而止,所以每款酒在釀製過程中她都不斷反覆測試各步驟和入桶的時間做而至最合適的效果。相她強調葡萄酒的自然與和諧結合,堅信可以將優雅,清新的口味做到平衡。
🌳 葡萄園平均樹齡45年,而種植的葡萄密度從每公頃6,000株葡萄到每公頃6,600株葡萄藤。這使葡萄酒能夠有足夠空間和更健康的生長環境 👍 全人手採收,之後在水泥槽發酵3~4星期,最後使用新橡木桶熟成18個月。
👅✍🏻實試紀錄Tasting Note: 首20分鐘散發著草莓果醬和紅醋栗的香味,還有許少磨菇和點點泥土氣息。入口酸度適宜,首段單寧雖然有點緊,但40分鐘後變得十分絲滑。有布冧、可可、李子、帶點煙草和薄荷,香氣也多了點椰子糖和奶油蛋糕,層次變化👍 餘味悠長。一眾小編們試酒時還追著喝,最後一滴不漏 🤣🤣👍👍👍

Love the blackberry and dark-chocolate aromas with hints of sandalwood and almonds. Full-bodied, layered and very intense and powerful. So polished and long. Shows gorgeous length. Drink in 2022.

Energetic, with briary tannins pushing a core of succulent plum, raspberry and blackberry preserve flavors along. Light spice, singed apple wood and tobacco notes fill in the background. Best from 2019 through 2030. 5,000 cases made.

Composed of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Dalem spent 18 months in part new and part one-year-old oak barrels. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, it leaps from the glass with notions of chocolate-covered cherries, crushed blackberries and plum preserves with a cedar and Marmite toast undercurrent plus a touch of beef drippings. Full-bodied and packed to the gills with youthful, crunchy black fruits, it has a firm frame and finishes a little woody at this youthful stage, but it should emerge singing in 2-3 years.
