Tasting note
2016年的寶嘉龍二牌特釀庫維克柯爾伯特展現了聖朱利安葡萄酒的經典與鮮明風味。這款乾型紅酒散發著紅色水果的香氣，伴隨著細膩的香料味和泥土的深度，結構堅實，單寧紮實，酸度平衡，酒體飽滿，風味濃郁。餘韻悠長，反映出其芬芳的複雜性。建議醒酒一小時，以充分釋放其香氣和風味。這款酒與烤羊肉、烤牛排、奶油蘑菇燴飯或一系列陳年乳酪等豐盛菜餚搭配得天衣無縫。
The 2016 Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou 'La Croix' Cuvee Colbert is a testament to the classic and savory profile that Saint-Julien wines are renowned for. This vintage, with its dry character, unfolds with a tapestry of red fruit nuances, interwoven with subtle spice and an earthy depth. The wine's structure is built on a foundation of firm tannins and balanced acidity, contributing to a robust body and an intense flavor profile. The finish is persistent, echoing the complexity of its bouquet. Decanting for an hour is recommended to allow the wine to express its full range of aromas and flavors. It pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes such as roasted lamb, grilled steak, a creamy mushroom risotto, or a selection of aged cheeses.
