Tasting note

品飲筆記：酒色深沉帶紫紅光澤，前段散發成熟黑莓與深櫻桃香，伴隨地中海灌木香（garrigue）、黑胡椒與溫暖香料，收尾有些皮革與黑巧克力的餘味。口感飽滿，果實濃郁但成熟，單寧紮實而被柔化，酸度為整體帶來清晰感與節奏，尾韻悠長且帶礦質感。 酒莊與葡萄園：安•安格羅與讓‑保羅·托洛特合作，深耕Minervois的傳統與現代技術。葡萄園坐落在石灰與黏土交錯的土壤，日照充足，晝夜溫差促成濃郁香氣與良好酸度。莊園重視低產量、人工整枝與分級採收，目標是土壤表現與果實純淨。 釀造工藝：採溫控發酵搭配溫和浸皮，保留純淨果香並提取適切結構，之後在中性與輕烘桶中陳年，使單寧圓潤、香料層次融合但不蓋過果味。瓶陳前會做充分整合，確保飲用時平衡穩定。 建議醒酒與溫度：若即刻飲用建議醒45–60分鐘，飲用溫度約16–18°C，搭配烤羊肉、濃味紅肉或煙燻菜餚效果最佳。

Tasting Note: Deep ruby with purple edges, this Minervois opens with an inviting bouquet of blackberry, dark cherry and Mediterranean garrigue, layered with black pepper, warm spice and a hint of leather. On the palate it’s full-bodied and concentrated: ripe dark fruit drives the core while chewy but polished tannins and balanced acidity give structure and lift. The finish is long, with savoury mineral echoes and a touch of dark chocolate. Producer & Vineyard: Domaine Anne Gros & Jean‑Paul Tollot craft wines rooted in Minervois terroir — vines grown on limestone and clay soils that bring both savoury minerality and sun‑ripened fruit. The team focuses on careful vineyard management, low yields and selective picking to concentrate flavours. Winemaking: Fermentation in temperature-controlled vats with gentle extraction preserves fruit purity while building texture. The wine sees time in a mix of neutral and lightly toasted oak to round tannins and add warm spice notes without overwhelming the fruit. Bottled after a period of élevage to integrate structure and aromatics. Serving: Best opened and decanted for 45–60 minutes if drinking now; shows well through the drinking window 2023–2031. Serve at 16–18°C with rich, grilled or braised dishes.
