Tasting note
品飲筆記:這款克里蒙「茴香和洋甘菊」2023 帶著清爽又明確的草本香氣——茴香籽、洋甘菊先行,隨之而來的青檸皮和梨子帶出清脆果感,蜂蠟般的溫潤與礦質鹹感穿插其間。中段口感圓潤但不沉重,酸度活潑,尾韻留有草本與礦物的餘味。 酒莊與釀造:克里蒙由 Bérénice Lurton 經營,釀酒團隊以呈現風土與優雅為目標。釀酒師 Frédéric Nivelle 與顧問 Lucien Llorca 注重保留果香與清新感,使用克制的橡木與適度的瓶前澄清,讓香氣成為主角。 田間與釀造小記:葡萄來自酒莊自家園地,田間管理細緻,重視光照與土壤健康,造就鮮明酸度與礦質感。釀造過程強調低溫發酵與適度的澄澈處理,使酒體有彈性與層次但不蓋過天然香氣。 口感建議:建議短暫醒酒(約20分鐘)讓香氣舒展,搭配油脂感魚類、香菇蛋類或帶有奶香的法式熟成乳酪,都能把這支酒的草本與礦物感凸顯出來。
Tasting note: Aromatic and precise, this 2023 release from Château Climens opens with lifted notes of fennel seed and chamomile over green citrus, pear and a light beeswax warmth. Flinty minerality and a saline thread give it an invigorating spine while a gently rounded mid-palate delivers texture without heaviness. The finish is clean, herb-tinged and persistent. Producer notes: From the historic Climens estate under the stewardship of Bérénice Lurton, this cuvée celebrates aromatic herbs and clarity. Winemaker Frédéric Nivelle, with consultant Lucien Llorca, aims for elegance and terroir expression — bright fruit framed by mineral tension rather than overt oak. Winemaking notes: Fermentation is handled carefully to preserve aromatics and freshness; a restrained use of oak and attentive lees contact add mouthfeel and subtle complexity without masking the primary floral-herbal character. Vineyard notes: Grapes are sourced from well-situated plots in the Climens domain with attentive viticulture led by Corinne Comme. Exposure and soils promote vibrant acidity and a distinct mineral lift that define the wine’s profile. Serve slightly chilled after a short 20-minute rest to allow aromatics to open. Pairs beautifully with oily fish, mushroom dishes, delicate game and creamy washed-rind cheeses.
