Tasting note
品飲筆記:前段以鮮明的紅莓、草莓香打頭,緊接著浮現可可與輕微雪松香,底層帶著泥土與松露般的香氣。口感中等偏飽滿,酸度鮮明帶動整體節奏,細緻且有線條感的丹寧緊緊包裹果實,越喝越顯層次,收結綿長而帶香料與礦物回味。 酒莊小誌:這款來自卡努比(Cannubi)名園,由維爾納·博爾戈尼家族掌管(維爾納是洛多維科之女)。酒莊以家族傳統為根,兼顧現代釀造的精準,重視田地個性而非過度干預。 釀造與田間:果實以人工分級採收,於酒窖採取溫控與細緻發酵,以延長浸皮和適度木桶熟成來打磨質地——既保留花果的靈氣,也讓香料與雪松逐步融合。卡努比園的石灰質黏土與良好排水,加上面向與老藤的穩定性,造就濃縮卻不失骨架的風味。建議醒酒約一到兩小時,或放入酒窖短期陳年後再享。
Tasting Note: Bright red-fruit aromatics of strawberry and raspberry open first, joined by undercurrents of cocoa, cedar and a discreet earthy, truffle-like savour. On the palate the wine is medium‑to‑full-bodied, driven by racy acidity and finely textured, linear tannins that thread through a concentrated core of flavour. The finish is long and persistent, revealing cedar, dark spice and mineral echoes. Producer Notes: From the historic Cannubi cru, this bottling comes from the Virna Borgogno estate under the stewardship of Virna (Lodovico's daughter). The estate balances respect for tradition with precise cellar work, aiming to showcase site character and elegance rather than overt extraction. Winemaking Notes: Grapes are selected parcel by parcel, hand-harvested and fermented with careful temperature control to preserve floral and red-fruit lift. Extended maceration and patient oak ageing (in traditional casks and selective barriques) refine texture and integrate spice and cedar notes while protecting freshness. Vineyard Notes: Sourced from the famed Cannubi exposures—well-drained calcareous-clay soils on gentle slopes with ideal sun exposure—vines yield concentrated fruit with a natural backbone. Low yields, meticulous canopy work and focused selection produce wines with structure, clarity and excellent aging potential.
