Tasting note

品飲筆記：酒色深沉，石榴磚紅中帶些褐邊。香氣以紅黑果（黑加侖、櫻桃、李子）為主，伴隨玫瑰花、肉桂、皮革與一抹燻煙、礦物氣息。口感中等偏厚，單寧結實但細緻，質地有嚼感，酸度帶出清新感，橡木香料與咖啡、甘草的層次豐富，收結長而芬芳。 酒莊與葡萄園：馬利詩歌堡為 Margaux 的三級列級酒莊（3ème Grand Cru Classé），風格優雅、注重平衡。葡萄園坐落於排水良好的礫石地帶，鄰近大西洋的海風有助成熟期溫和，老藤產出濃縮而細緻的果實。 釀造工藝：採用混凝土發酵槽發酵，之後以橡木桶熟成約16個月，使果香與木質感融合而不搶味。這年份成熟飽滿，現在開瓶一小時晾醒最能呈現完整風貌。 搭配建議：建議搭配牛排、烤羊肉、野味或成熟硬質起司，能完美襯托其肉感與香料層次。

Tasting note: Deep garnet-brick colour with a perfumed nose of roses, cinnamon stick, dusty soil and unsmoked cigar over a core of kirsch and redcurrant jelly, with mineral/iron hints. On the palate it is medium–full-bodied with a chewy, structured texture: ripe black and blue fruit, cassis and plum, layered with tobacco, espresso and sweet spice. Acidity provides lift and balance while well-integrated oak from extended élevage frames the fruit; tannins are firm but polished and the finish is long and fragrant. Producer & vineyard: Château Malescot St-Exupéry is a 3ème Grand Cru Classé of Margaux, known for elegant, classically-styled Médoc wines. Vines sit on the commune's typical well-drained gravelly soils with good exposure and maritime influence, producing concentrated, refined fruit from mature vines. Winemaking: Fermentation takes place in concrete vats followed by 16 months of ageing in oak barrels, resulting in a refined integration of oak and tannin. The 2005 vintage shows ripe extraction with freshness retained, drinking beautifully now and with further cellaring potential. Serve & enjoy: Decant for about an hour to allow aromatics to open. Best with grilled or roasted red meats, game and aged hard cheeses.
