Tasting note

1999 年的 Chateau Leoville-Las Cases 'Grand Vin de Leoville' 是來自波爾多聖朱利安產區的卓越佳釀。這款酒呈現深紅寶石色，帶有紫羅蘭色的反光。香氣中透露出細膩的動物氣息，心櫻桃的微妙香氣，還有淡淡的丁香味。口感清新，紅色漿果味，結構活潑，礦物質平衡，表現出複雜而精緻的風味。這款酒在法國橡木桶中熟成，為其已經令人印象深刻的風味增添了一層優雅。這個年份因為溫暖潮濕的春天而提早收穫，隨後是陽光充足的夏天，造就了一款既易飲又適合陳年的佳釀。非常適合搭配烤羊肉、燉牛肉、成熟的奶酪和烤鴨。

The 1999 Chateau Leoville-Las Cases 'Grand Vin de Leoville' is a remarkable wine from the prestigious Saint-Julien appellation in Bordeaux. This wine showcases a deep ruby color with violet reflections. On the nose, it reveals delicate animal nuances, hints of heart cherries, and subtle notes of cloves. The palate is fresh and red-berried with a lively structure, balanced minerality, and a complex, polished expression. The wine is matured in French oak, adding a layer of sophistication to its already impressive profile. This vintage is known for its early harvest due to a warm, wet spring, followed by a sunny summer, resulting in a wine that is both approachable and age-worthy. Perfectly paired with grilled lamb, beef stew, mature cheeses, and roasted duck.
