Tasting note

這款來自麥克拉倫谷的紅酒果實濃郁，入口先是成熟的深色李子與黑莓風味，接著漫出香草、烤椰子與暖香料的氣息。酒體飽滿、單寧圓潤但有支撐感，橡木味經過桶陳整合得很順口。葡萄取自Long Gully Road的風土，採用桶中發酵，96%採美國橡木、4%法國橡木，28%新桶，並以旋蓋封瓶保鮮。整體口感豐滿厚實，建議醒酒約45分鐘，能讓香氣更開展、口感更柔和。酒莊以親切的故事命名這支酒，年輕好飲也具陳年潛力，適合配重口味燒烤或香料料理。

A concentrated, fruit-forward red from McLaren Vale showing ripe dark plum and blackberry overlaid with vanilla, toasted coconut and warm baking spice. Barrel fermented and matured in 96% American and 4% French oak (28% new; 31% one-year; 41% two-year), the wine is plush with creamy oak integration and silky yet present tannins. The grapes come from the Long Gully Road vineyard in McLaren Vale; bottled under screwcap for freshness. At 15% ABV this vintage delivers generous body and a long, warming finish. Producer notes mention the wine’s playful name — inspired by Sparky’s childhood scooter — and the style is built for immediate pleasure yet can be enjoyed across its drinking window. Best decanted about 45 minutes to open up aromatics and soften oak edges.
