Tasting note

品飲筆記：酒色深寶石紅，香氣層次豐富，有黑櫻桃與藍莓果醬感，伴隨甘草、奶糖與一抹橘皮香。入口多汁而優雅，紅櫻桃般的清新與細緻、整合良好的單寧互相支撐，藏有淡淡黑巧克力的回味。酒莊與生產：來自歷史悠久的拉路斯（列級二級），這款金玫瑰二牌定位為較早飲用但保有列級酒的質地與陳年潛力。田間與風土：全莊約82公頃，生長在第一更新世的加戎砾石土壤，平均樹齡約46年，全面依循有機與生物動力管理，機械以外以人工為主，並設有氣象站與嚴格防疫措施。採收時進行地塊篩選、田間與抵達後雙重篩選。釀造工藝：收穫後分箱入池，50%橡木與50%水泥控溫發酵槽，添加酵母促成發酵，之後以法國橡木桶熟成約14個月。口感建議：單寧細緻卻有支撐力，酸度帶來清爽節奏，適合醒酒1至2小時再飲，搭配燒烤紅肉、獵物類或熟成起司效果極佳。語氣輕鬆地說，這支二牌既有波爾多風格的嚴謹，又帶著友好的飲用姿態。

Tasting note: Deep ruby with a fragrant, layered nose of black-cherry and blackberry confit, hints of liquorice, nougat and a touch of orange zest. On the palate it’s juicy and elegant: bright red-cherry freshness sits alongside fine, well-integrated tannins and a subtle dark chocolate note on the finish. Producer & estate notes: From Chateau Gruaud-Larose (Classified 2ème Cru) — an historic Saint-Julien property now under the Taillan Group. The Sarget bottling is the estate’s second label, crafted to offer earlier approachability while retaining cru-classé character and ageing potential. Vineyard & terroir: 82 ha under vine on Garonne gravel dating to the first quaternary; average vine age ~46 years. The estate practices integrated pest control and manages the full surface according to Organic and Biodynamic principles. Manual harvest, vineyard sorting and double sorting at reception ensure quality fruit. Winemaking & ageing: Plot selection at reception; fermentation in 50% wood and 50% cement thermo-regulated tanks with yeast addition. Aged 14 months in French oak, this wine balances savory structure and fresh fruit. Vintage note: 2020 brought early vegetative growth, a challenging spring, then warm dry summer rescued by two late storms that preserved freshness and ripeness. Drinking window: 2024–2040. Serving: decant 1–2 hours for best aromatic lift. Pair with grilled or roasted red meats, game or aged cheeses.
