Tasting note

品飲筆記：這支單一園來得細緻又有張力，先是紅櫻桃、黑莓與波森莓的果香打開，接著飄出香料與花香，再有一抹柑橘皮的清爽。酒體屬中等偏輕，酸度俐落、單寧如絲般細緻圓潤，口中帶有明顯的礦物骨架——乾燥黏土與灰岩碎屑的土質感，使果味更有輪廓。橡木以配角身份提供烘焙香與淡淡煙燻，收尾干淨且回味悠長。 酒莊與葡萄園：辰居（Te Whare Ra）在馬爾堡專注呈現單一園個性，Clayvin 5096 位於石質為主的坡地，土壤偏黏土混灰岩，氣候受海洋調節，成熟期均衡，產果濃度高而不失鮮活感。 釀造小語：採分批小量處理，釀程以溫和萃取為主，發酵與陳年安排以保留純淨果味與口感層次，木桶用於襯托香氣與結構，而非掩蓋風土。 飲用建議：開瓶可醒個半小時，或入窖陳放數年更能展現複雜性。配餐上，烤鴨、油脂較重的魚類或帶有亞洲風味的料理都很合拍。

Tasting Note: Bright, focused and elegantly layered. Aromas of dark cherry, black raspberry and boysenberry give way to spiced plum, a floral lift and a line of citrus zest. The palate is medium-bodied with vibrant, polished acidity and fine-grained, velvety tannins. A distinct mineral seam — stony clay and greywacke — threads through the fruit, while discreet oak brings baking spice and gentle smoke, finishing long and persistent. Producer & Vineyard: From the Clayvin single vineyard (site 5096) in Marlborough, this wine showcases a strong sense of place. The site’s stony, dry clay and greywacke soils and the cool maritime influence produce concentrated fruit with a taut mineral core. Winemaking: Crafted in small batches with careful, gentle extraction to preserve purity and finesse. Fermentation and élevage were handled to balance freshness with texture — oak used to add spice and support rather than dominate — resulting in a refined, site-expressive bottling. Cellaring & Serving: Best enjoyed now with a short decant (30–60 minutes) or cellared further. Versatile at the table, it pairs beautifully with richer fish, duck preparations and Asian-influenced sauces.
