Tasting note

品飲筆記：2018 莎瑪莎香氣帶著野草莓與紅莓的鮮活果香，夾帶乾花、林菇與樹皮的土感，還有淡淡肉桂香調。入口中段恢復力強、酸度明亮，單寧細緻但有骨架，口感光滑，尾韻帶礦物與香草般的微苦回甘。 酒莊與產區：維爾納·博爾戈尼奧家族注重傳統與地塊特性，莎瑪莎園是酒莊的代表片區之一，種植在石灰質與黏土交互的坡地，日照與坡向讓果實成熟而保有活力。 釀造方式：以充足的皮膜接觸提取香氣與結構，熟成以大木桶為主，搭配少量小桶細化香料與柔化單寧。酒體呈現層次分明的果實與礦物感，口感舒服、能夠隨時間展現更多細節。 飲用建議：醒酒一小時左右更能展現花香與礦物層次，配烤羊、野味或蘑菇類料理最合拍。

Tasting note: The 2018 Sarmassa opens with a bouquet of wild strawberries and raspberries layered with dried florals, forest mushrooms and a whiff of cinnamon and tree bark. On the palate it is medium–full with bright, lively acidity, fine-grained yet firm tannins and a mineral, slightly balsamic finish that lingers. Producer notes: From the Sarmassa cru, this bottling reflects a family-run estate approach focused on clarity and terroir expression. The wine shows traditional refinement and excellent ageing potential—readying beautifully in the cellar but rewarding with moderate patience. Winemaking notes: Fermentation follows careful skin contact to extract ripe perfumes and structured tannins, followed by maturation in large oak casks with selected smaller barrels to integrate spice and round the texture. The result balances freshness, structure and aromatic depth. Vineyard notes: Grapes come from hillside parcels in Sarmassa planted on calcareous-clay soils with favorable exposure. Vine selection and low yields emphasize concentration and bright natural acidity, producing a wine with both energy and finesse.

Winery

維爾納·博爾戈尼奧是以家族傳承為基礎的酒莊，現由洛多維科之女 Virna 延續經營。酒莊重視單一園地的細緻管理、低產量與傳統釀法，力求把坡地土壤、日照與風土特性在酒款中表現出來。釀造上偏好平衡的香氣與結構，方便陳年也適合現在開瓶享用。

Virna Borgogno is a family estate rooted in traditional Barolo craftsmanship. Under Virna—daughter of Lodovico—the winery continues to focus on classic techniques, careful parcel selection and low yields to express the distinct soil and exposure of single vineyards like Sarmassa. The house style favors aromatic clarity, structural precision and cellar potential.
