Tasting note

品鑑筆記：2005 年拉拉貢散發出濃郁卻不失優雅的香氣，黑櫻桃與深色果醬打底，伴隨雪松、溫和菸草、香料與烘烤橡木的細膩層次。口感飽滿而寬廣，丹寧細緻如絲、酸度明亮，整體平衡且帶有迷人的鹹香與泥土氣息，餘韻悠長。生產說明：酒莊約 80 公頃，近年朝向尊重土地的栽培方式轉型，強調依每個地塊調整的自然管理，務求保存土壤與風土特性。釀造手法：採摘以人工小籃裝運，經過三次人工篩選並輔以光學分選，分地塊低侵抽取、以優雅為目標；在新舊橡木中熟成約 16 個月，於陳年過程中完成最後的調配。田地特色：礫石層（含石英、方解石與矽質）能反射光線並賦予果實精緻感與礦物脈絡。建議醒酒約一小時，適合搭配烤紅肉、獵味或陳年乳酪，靜心細品更顯風格。

Tasting Note: The 2005 Chateau La Lagune unfurls a potent yet refined bouquet of black cherry and blackberry liqueur framed by cedar, sweet tobacco, incense and subtle toasty oak. The palate is broad and savory, with silky, ripe tannins, lively acidity and an expansive mouthfeel that balances power with elegance. Producer Notes: La Lagune’s 80-hectare estate is managed with a strong commitment to environmentally respectful viticulture; a transition to organic practices was initiated in 2013 with certification planned thereafter. This approach aims to preserve soil health and terroir expression, letting the fruit reflect the unique gravelly sites. Winemaking Notes: Grapes are hand‑harvested into small crates, subjected to meticulous triple manual sorting and optical selection, and vinified by parcel. Extraction is carefully controlled to favor elegance; maturation lasts about 16 months in oak, with the final blend refined during ageing. Vineyard Notes: La Lagune sits on a light gravel matrix—pink, yellow and white quartz, calcite and silica—that reflects sunlight and encourages finesse, lift and a mineral thread through the fruit. Ageing & Drinking: This is an age-worthy vintage with a long drinking window; moderate decanting (about 60 minutes) will open the aromatics and silk the texture. Serve with rich roasted red meats, game or mature cheese.
