Tasting note
2005年的拉圖奧比安堡出自聲名顯赫的法國佩薩克-雷奧良產區，是這款酒的最後一個年份，展現了獨特的風格。這款酒中卡本內蘇維翁的比例在該產區來說相對較高，釋放出經典的燒焦土壤與煙熏黑櫻桃香氣，並有著烤香草的堅實基調。中等酒體與單寧結構，呈現出黑李子與黑加侖子的口感，並被優雅的烤橡木氣息所框架。酒精感溫暖而不燥，軟性酸度帶來平衡，收尾則略顯單寧乾燥。建議醒酒一小時，以展現其複雜的風味。這款酒非常適合搭配烤羊排、紅酒燉牛肉或香菇燴飯等濃郁菜餚，也可以與一系列陳年乳酪一同品嚐。
The 2005 Chateau La Tour Haut-Brion, hailing from the renowned Pessac-Leognan appellation, is a wine of great distinction and the final vintage of its kind. This blend, with a significant portion of Cabernet Sauvignon for the region, exudes classic notes of scorched earth and smoky black cherries, underpinned by a backbone of roasted herbs. Medium-bodied with a tannic structure, it presents a palate of dark plum and cassis, elegantly framed by toasty oak nuances. The wine's warming alcohol is balanced by a soft acidity, while the finish is notably drying. Decanting for an hour is recommended to allow the complex flavors to unfold. It pairs exceptionally well with robust dishes such as grilled lamb chops, beef bourguignon, or a hearty mushroom risotto, and can also be savored alongside a selection of aged cheeses.
