2021 Domaine Amiot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru

石崖氣息與花果並存，細緻卻有力，適合宴客也好收藏。

【為什麼選它？】
1) 產地講究 -> Clos de la Roche 五塊小地塊，東南向、270m，石灰岩＋礫石＋巨石土壤，帶出礦感與深度。
2) 善用橡木 -> 約半數新桶陳年，增加結構及香料感，但不蓋果味，成熟後更有層次。
3) 產量稀少 -> 全莊約5,700瓶，買到就是少有的入手機會。

【侍酒師私房筆記】倒出來第一時間見到紅寶石帶點石榴紅邊；先是玫瑰與紫羅蘭的花香，接著櫻桃、藍莓跳出來，慢慢轉成松露、濕土和香料。口腔裡單寧細緻但有骨架，中段果實濃實，礦質感貫穿，收結乾淨且很長。現在飲開瓶醒一小時最舒服，留酒窖裡再等幾年會更圓潤。

【場景化配餐指南】周末帶父母吃燒鴨、與友人品桌上小鳥類或野味煲、公司招待高階客戶的節慶晚餐，都很合拍；配一塊成熟Comté或燒鵝也很對味。

【降維打擊對比】比起那些高價名牌，Amiot 更像是用心的工匠派：土壤表現直接、橡木用得剛好、產量有限，性價比和收藏價值都很吸引。

A Morey-Saint-Denis Grand Cru that pairs stony minerality with floral lift and concentrated red-fruit depth.

【Why choose it?】
1) Terroir-first parcels -> Genuine Clos de la Roche expression: east–southeast slope, limestone/gravel/boulder soils and five distinct plots give layered minerality and precision.
2) Measured oak ageing -> 50% new barrels for structure without overwhelming fruit: ripe spice and poised tannins that age gracefully.
3) Small-production rarity -> Only ~5,700 bottles: collectible, cellar-worthy and a standout at special dinners.

【Sommelier's notes】On the glass the colour moves from ruby to warm garnet. Aromas open from rose and violet to ripe red cherry and blueberry, then deepen to truffle, forest floor and baking spice. The palate is firmly structured yet lithe — silky tannins support concentrated fruit and a pronounced mineral streak. Mid-palate density moves to an impressively long, savory finish.

【Winemaking & Vineyard】Domaine-managed parcels at ~270m altitude are a blend of five micro-sites across the clos. Hand-harvested, vinified parcel by parcel with vintage-adapted techniques; matured in oak (c.50% new) to balance freshness and spice while preserving parcel identity.

【Occasion】Ideal for celebratory dinners, a refined roast duck banquet, or as a special bottle for collectors — serves well after 1–1.5 hours decanting if enjoyed now, and will repay patience in the cellar.

【Competitive edge】Compared with marquee big-name Grand Crus, this Domaine Amiot bottling delivers authentic Clos de la Roche terroir, restrained oak and lower availability — a high-value Grand Cru for those who favour precision and ageing potential.
