Tasting note

品鑑筆記：2018年的沃爾奈一級田戴爾彼，先以細緻花香和成熟紅果迎接，入口展現豐富的質地與略帶樹脂感的滋味：紅櫻桃、覆盆子果皮與一抹礦物與草本。中段圓潤且有力，收束時回歸典型的田戴爾彼清朗與緊緻感，尾韻悠長、帶些暖度。 酒莊與產區：Domaine Bitouzet‑Prieur 為家族經營，現由 Vincent 與 François Bitouzet 打理。酒莊位於沃爾奈，專注於在經典坡地上栽培並表現出地塊的細膩與陳年潛力。 釀造方式：採取溫和的浸皮與發酵處理以保留香氣，入桶陳年於法國橡木桶（含部分新桶），時間充足以磨合單寧並建立豐富口感。整體風格重質地與層次，而非烘烤感。 葡萄園與口感：田地坐落於典型的沃爾奈斜坡，土壤與朝向帶來優雅的酸質與礦性，果實成熟但不過火，入口圓潤、有層次感，單寧細緻，餘韻長且有收斂力。建議提前醒酒，與鴨、野味或慢燉料理搭配效果極佳。

Tasting note: Bright, layered and supple — this Volnay Premier Cru opens with lifted floral perfume and ripe red-fruit aromas, then reveals a textured, sappy mid‑palate: red cherry, raspberry skin and subtle savory earth. The wine is round and robust yet retains the classic Taillepieds austerity on a very long finish, with a touch of warmth that hints this vintage’s ripeness. Producer notes: From the family-run Domaine Bitouzet‑Prieur, managed by Vincent and François Bitouzet, Taillepieds is one of Volnay’s sought-after climats. The domaine balances Burgundian finesse with expressive ripeness in warmer years, producing wines of elegance and longevity. Winemaking notes: Fermented with gentle extraction to preserve aromatic lift and finesse, the wine typically sees élevage in French oak barrels (a portion in younger wood) for extended maturation. Careful handling keeps tannins polished while building mid‑palate texture and length. Vineyard notes: Planted on classic Volnay slopes, the Taillepieds vineyards deliver finely textured fruit and notable minerality. Soils and exposure encourage ripe aromatics and a concentrated, sappy profile that benefits from cellar time to harmonize.
