2008 Champagne Louis Dousset Brut Rose Saignee

2008 年這瓶桃紅年份香檳散發迷人的鮭粉色調，香氣帶有暖香料、微酸的巴薩米克與熟梅果的甜香。入口時氣泡細膩、觸感絲滑，果味飽滿但被清爽的酸度拉出結構，尾段偏向辛香與礦感，乾淨俐落。酒莊簡介：Louis Dousset 為重視風土的小型生產者，從山坡田塊到酒窖皆力求低干預與手工處理，強調單一產區的個性。釀製方式：以浸汁（saignée）手法取得桃紅色，再以傳統瓶釀法長時間與酒泥接觸熟成，並採用零添加（Brut Nature），保留純淨果味與礦質感。葡萄園位於 Grand Cru 的白堊坡地，排水良好且氣候涼爽，賦予香檳線條感與鹽質能量。飲用建議：輕微醒瓶或開瓶靜置 15–30 分鐘，讓香氣與氣泡的細緻度充分展現，特別適合搭配油脂魚、鴨肝或帶辛香的海鮮料理。

A refined vintage rosé from a Grand Cru hillside, this 2008 Brut Nature shows a glowing salmon-pink hue and an aromatic pulse of warm spice, balsamic lift and plum-scented red fruit. On the palate it is surprisingly generous yet kept taut by bright acidity; fine, persistent bubbles carry silky texture and savoury spice to a crisp, dry finish. Producer notes: Louis Dousset is a grower-producer focused on terroir expression from Verzenay, hand-harvesting and low-intervention work in the cellars. Winemaking: made by the saignée method and vinified by traditional method with extended lees ageing before release; zero dosage (Brut Nature) preserves pure fruit and mineral clarity. Vineyard: sourced from Grand Cru slopes with chalky, well-drained soils and cool microclimate that lend precision and saline energy. Serve gently chilled; allow 15–30 minutes after opening to settle and show its layered spice and plum notes.
