Chateau le Coteau 2017 Margaux 力古圖酒莊 《醇酒系列 - F239C》

Chateau le Coteau 昔日的瑪歌中級莊Cru Bourgeois，要知道在Margaux 產區小酒莊比列級莊更稀珍，因為單瑪歌區就總共有21家列級莊，現今大酒莊不斷向外伸延併購鄰居來當作副牌酒的專用葡萄園，而Chateau La Coteau 絕對是一家值得留意的小酒莊，酒莊位於波爾多左岸的Margaux產區的Arsac鎮，經歷了三代傳承，以前一直是幫他人釀酒，直到現任莊主Eric Leglise接手後開始正式開始釀造自己的葡萄酒。

Chateau le Coteau 擁有12公頃的葡萄園，這些葡萄園與 Rauzan-Segla、Giscours、Du Tertre 及 D'Issan相鄰，風土條件絕不遜色，Eric是堅定的有機種植擁護者，他的葡萄田裡都是滿佈來自古加隆河的鵝卵石，葡萄平均樹齡為30年，葡萄行間種滿了苜蓿，每到春天田裡開滿了苜蓿花，這些花讓法國罕見的孤蜂在這裡安家落戶，雖然Eric並沒有申請有機認證，但是他一直使用可降解的生物溶劑來代替含有重金屬銅的波爾多液。一反現在流行的風格，Eric並不追求濃郁、強烈的波爾多新派風格葡萄酒，反之忠於傳統瑪歌的風格，葡萄不過度成熟，釀造不過度使用木桶，1/3的酒在傳統法國新桶中陳年12-16個月，並每隔三個月換一次新桶，使釀出的葡萄酒更加的優雅耐飲。

實試紀錄：剛開瓶時木桶、煙熏、樹莓的香氣明顯，之後出現紅果、櫻桃、覆盆子、玫瑰花、烤咖啡豆、奶油和少許雪茄盒的氣息。入口細膩，帶有少許黑朱古力、黑胡椒和肉桂的味道，單寧如天鵝絨般滑一滑。

🏅 Jeb Dunnuck 91

The deep purple/ruby-hued 2017 Chateau Le Coteau checks in as equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon and spent 15 months in barrels, with 25% being new. This medium-bodied, nicely textured, balanced Margaux has impressive aromatics of black cherries, dried flowers, and cedary spice. It shows the elegance and mid-weight style of the vintage and has terrific balance and ripe tannins. Give it a year or three and enjoy over the following decade. This tiny estate is owned by Philippe Porcheron and is located between Le Tertre and Monbrison (in the Arsac region), with Michel Rolland adding consulting advice.

🏅 Wine Advocate 90

The 2017 Le Coteau is composed of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it sings of crushed red and black currants, blackberries and raspberry preserves with hints of rosehip tea and cinnamon toast. Medium-bodied, soft and plush, with loads of juicy fruit, it finishes seductively fragrant.

🏅 James Suckling 90

Plenty of toasted spices and good fragrance with a rich, ripe plum and berry nose. This has a very fresh and juicy palate with plenty of red plums and dark, toasted spices. Long, elegant finish. Outstanding value. Drink or hold.
