Tasting note
2017 年的尤利西斯葡萄園來自美國奧克維爾,是一款結構豐富的紅酒,層次豐富的風味令人著迷。香氣中散發著黑茶葉和奶油麵包的誘人香氣。口感豐富,帶有深櫻桃、香醋、泥炭、森林漿果和新鮮核桃的味道,細膩的質地貫穿其中。餘味悠長溫暖,帶有可可粉的持久香氣。這款酒主要由赤霞珠釀製,並加入少量的品麗珠和小維多,並在橡木桶中陳釀。葡萄園位於納帕谷奧克維爾的山腳下,土壤為深厚的礫石粘壤土,非常適合種植優質葡萄。2017 年的年份經歷了一個非常潮濕的冬季和春季,隨後經歷了幾次顯著的熱浪,最終收穫量雖小但品質卓越。建議在飲用前醒酒 1 小時,以充分欣賞其深度和複雜性。搭配烤牛排、烤羊肉、成熟奶酪或黑巧克力甜點享用。
The 2017 Ulysses Vineyard from Oakville, USA, is a bold and structured red wine that captivates with its complex layers of flavors. On the nose, it reveals enticing aromas of black tea leaf and brioche. The palate is rich with deep cherry, balsamic, peat, forest berries, and fresh walnut, all woven through a finely grained texture. The finish is long and warm, with lingering notes of cacao powder. This wine is predominantly made from Cabernet Sauvignon, with small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, and is aged in oak barrels. The vineyard, located along the Napa Valley’s Oakville bench, benefits from deep, gravelly, clay loam soils, ideal for growing high-quality grapes. The 2017 vintage experienced a very wet winter and spring, followed by several significant heat waves, resulting in a small but exceptional harvest. Decant for 1 hour before serving to fully appreciate its depth and complexity. Pair with grilled steak, roast lamb, mature cheeses, or dark chocolate desserts.
