2019 Chateau Coutet Saint Emilion Grand Cru (1500 ml)

來自古特的2019年，坐落在聖埃美隆第一個山丘上的小產區，風土感明顯。香氣以黑櫻桃與梅子為主，伴隨藍莓、微妙的草本與烘烤香料（黑巧克力、肉豆蔻）。口感圓潤多汁，質地帶有奶油般的順滑感，單寧細緻但有結構感，酸度平衡，橡木香（18個月、五成新桶）賦予香料與深度。酒莊注重有機栽培（2012年取得有機認證），葡萄以人工採收、手工踩籽並在古老酒窖中以天然乳酸發酵，保留了土地的原生微生物風貌。這款酒適合與烤羊腿、紅肉或帶菌菇的燉菜搭配，年輕時醒酒更能展現果香與層次。

A refined Saint-Émilion Grand Cru from Chateau Coutet’s hillside vineyards. The 2019 shows a fragrant bouquet of black cherry, plum and blueberry underpinned by toasted sage, dark chocolate and nutmeg. On the palate it is medium-bodied and fleshy, with creamy, juicy fruit framed by fine, fully integrated tannins and a balanced, slightly spicy oak character from 18 months in 50% new barrels. Hand-harvested and vinified using traditional, non-pumping methods with native malolactic fermentation, this organic wine combines old-vine concentration with a graceful, savory finish. Drink now with decanting or cellar through the early 2030s.

Winery

古特酒莊由Beaulieu家族世代經營，位於聖埃美隆第一山丘，距村落僅半公里。葡園密植約6,000株/公頃，葡樹平均約38年，2012年起取得有機認證。栽培與釀造重視手工與傳統：人工採摘分選、木箱運送、傳統手踩發酵、不使用抽泵，並在古老酒窖中以天然乳酸菌完成第二發酵。橡木桶陳18個月（五成新桶），成就集中而優雅的風格。

Chateau Coutet has been in the hands of the Beaulieu family for centuries. Perched half a kilometre from the village on Saint-Émilion’s first hill, the estate farms organically (certified since 2012) and maintains a traditional approach: high planting density (~6,000 vines/ha), an average vine age around 38 years, hand-harvest and sorting, manual treading and pump-free vinification in an old cellar with a healthy micro-bacterial balance. The wine is matured for 18 months in 50% new oak, producing wines that combine concentration with elegance.
