Tasting note
這支2008年的勃根地白酒色澤金黃帶琥珀,香氣成熟而多層次:烤蘋果、杏脯與蜂蜜的溫潤感,夾帶烤榛果與香草、細緻的橡木香。入口圓潤滑順,奶油感與礦物鹹味並存,酸度明快支撐整體結構,酒體中段飽滿但不笨重,尾韻悠長,留下杏仁、檸檬皮與略帶烤香的餘味。酒莊以小規模、注重風土的生產方式聞名:人工採收、嚴格篩選果實,輕柔壓榨與低溫慢發酵,於橡木桶中與酒泥一同熟成以增加口感層次。葡萄園多為勃根地典型的石灰質土壤,產量控制讓果實集中,成就這種成熟而仍然有活力、適合細細品味的經典白酒。建議稍微醒酒約半小時,讓香氣充分舒展。
A mature Bourgogne Blanc from Domaine Nicolas Rossignol showing attractive amber-gold hues and a complex aromatic profile. Expect baked orchard fruit and dried apricot layered with toasted hazelnut, honeyed notes and a hint of warm spice and vanilla. On the palate the wine is plush and creamy yet held by a lively mineral-driven acidity; subtle oak integration provides a rounded mid-palate and a long, savory finish with lingering nutty and citrus peel echoes. Producer notes emphasize careful fruit selection and patient aging to let tertiary characters develop without losing freshness. Winemaking follows a restrained, terroir-focused approach: gentle pressing, slow fermentation and barrel ageing with lees contact to build texture and complexity. The vineyards sit within classic Burgundian limestone-influenced soils, yielding modest crops and concentrated fruit that balance richness with a clear mineral thread. Best served slightly cool and given a short decant to open.
