2022 Love Over Gold Grenache Mouvèdre Shiraz Hommage Eden

品飲筆記：打開杯蓋是成熟紅黑果與溫和黑胡椒的混合，伴隨些許乾草本與花香。口感圓潤而不厚重，果味集中但有清爽的酸度撐起結構，單寧細緻、質地絲滑，尾韻帶礦感與香料回甘。酒莊與釀造：由一間專注於風土表現的小酒莊在伊登谷精心釀製，採小園分批手採，部分整串發酵以增添層次，低干預處理保留果香純淨。陳年在中性至輕度烘烤的橡木中使香料與酒體融合，帶出優雅而耐喝的風格。葡萄園環境：來自海拔較高、排水良好的石礫土壤，晝夜溫差大，使果實成熟同時保留清脆酸度，酒款既適合當下享用，也適合短期陳放。

Tasting note: Immediately attractive on the nose with layered dark cherry and ripe red-fruit aromas lifted by cracked black pepper, dried herb and a violet floral thread. The palate is concentrated yet lifted — plush core fruit balanced by bright acidity, fine-grained tannins and a savoury, mineral-tinged finish. Producer notes: From a boutique winemaker in Eden Valley, this wine is a deliberate homage to Rhône-style blends, made in small parcels with fruit selected for freshness and concentration. Winemaking: Hand-harvested fruit, a mix of whole-cluster inclusion and destemmed fermentations, gentle extraction to preserve purity, then aged in seasoned French oak to integrate spice and support without dominating. Vineyard: Sourced from higher-elevation, well-drained parcels in Eden Valley where cool nights and stony soils give pronounced aromatics and focused acidity. This vintage shows both immediate charm and the structure for short- to mid-term bottle age.
