2020 Chateau de la Maltroye Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru 'Dent de Chien'

品飲筆記：淺金黃色帶綠光澤，先是成熟帶甜的果香與白花，接着出現烤蘋果、檸檬皮和微妙的杏仁／榛果香，橡木的烘烤香與細膩奶油感融為一體。口感飽滿但不臃腫，中段豐滿、酸度清晰，礦感與鹹澀尾韻延展持久。

酒莊介紹：麥托爾（Chateau de la Maltroye）在當地以堅持地塊風土與傳統工法聞名，對頂級一級園田塊有嚴格的選果標準與細緻管理，追求清晰的產地表現與層次感。

釀造工藝：手工採收後溫和壓榨，於新桶與舊桶中進行發酵與陳年。酒泥攪拌帶來豐富奶油質地，橡木的使用節制，讓香氣與酸度保持平衡而不掩蓋風土特色。

葡萄園與風土：Dent de Chien 的石灰岩與礫石土壤排水良好，有利於形成緊緻礦感和明確結構。產量控制與精細的樹冠管理，賦予果實集中度與熟度，釀出兼具力量與優雅的優質一級園風範。飲用建議：建議醒酒約45分鐘，可更顯層次，適合搭配煙燻魚、海鮮奶油料理、烤白肉與陳年奶酪。

Tasting note: Pale gold with green highlights. Aromas of ripe orchard fruits and white flowers lead into layers of baked apple, lemon zest and a subtle nutty/almond note, all wrapped in gentle toasted oak and a creamy texture. On the palate it is concentrated yet finely balanced — rounded mid-palate richness gives way to bright, mineral-tinged acidity and a long, saline finish.

Producer notes: From Chateau de la Maltroye's prized Dent de Chien Premier Cru parcel, this bottling reflects careful vineyard selection and classic Côte de Beaune expression. The estate aims to preserve clarity of terroir while adding measured use of oak for structure and complexity.

Winemaking notes: Hand-harvested fruit was gently pressed, with fermentation and part of the élevage in new and seasoned oak barrels to build texture and aromatic depth. Lees ageing contributes to a creamy mouthfeel while regular bâtonnage was used judiciously to integrate oak and preserve freshness.

Vineyard notes: Dent de Chien sits on well-drained limestone soils that lend pronounced minerality and tension. Low yields and meticulous canopy work encourage full phenolic ripeness and intense flavour concentration, producing a Premier Cru of both power and finesse.
