Tasting note

品嚐筆記：這款2019年出品的龍諭龍8混釀，入口先是厚實的黑果香──黑櫻桃、李子與成熟莓果，伴隨柔和香料與微甜橡木香。酒體中等偏厚，果味豐滿但不膩，帶有一股鹹香與土壤的氣息，單寧細緻而有支撐，餘韻持久。 酒莊風貌：龍諭酒莊致力於把在地風土和現代釀造手法結合，長年尋找不同園塊來混釀出層次感與穩定品質，這支龍8混釀就是他們兼顧日常飲用與細細品味的代表作。 釀造小記：釀酒師在發酵與熟成上採取平衡策略，保持果香清新同時以適度橡木增添結構與香料感，經過陳放使單寧更圓潤，酒體帶有順滑口感。 葡萄園與環境：葡萄來自數個地塊，土壤與微氣候賦予酒款一定的礦感與鹹味，收成以成熟度與酸度平衡為主，換來這款果實線條清楚、口感飽滿的表現。 建議飲用：醒酒約45分鐘能讓香氣更開放，建議搭配烤肉、燒臘、紅燒或菇類濃味料理以及熟成硬質起司，與朋友慢慢品味最為合適。

Tasting note: A confident dry red showing ripe black-fruit aromas of plum and black cherry edged with sweet spice, cedar and a whisper of vanilla from measured oak. On the palate it is medium-plus in body with plush fruit, a savory undercurrent and silky, supportive tannins that carry the flavors into a persistent finish. Producer notes: Crafted by Longyu (龍諭) as part of their Long 8 blended series, this 2019 release balances traditional regional character with modern cellar techniques. The producer aims for approachable wines that still reveal texture and ageing potential. Winemaking notes: Fermentation and ageing were handled with attention to preserving ripe fruit while integrating oak influence—likely a combination of stainless steel for freshness and carefully selected oak for structure and spice. Maturation smooths the tannins and lifts the aromatic profile without overwhelming the fruit. Vineyard notes: Fruit is sourced from multiple parcels chosen for ripe, concentrated flavors and balanced acidity; soils and microclimates contribute earthy, savory notes and ripe tannin structure. Harvest timing favoured maturity with freshness to deliver a rounded mid-palate. Service & pairing: Best decanted for about 45 minutes. Serve slightly below room temperature. Pairs especially well with roasted and glazed meats, rich braised dishes, mushroom-forward plates and mature cheeses.
