Tasting note
1999年的玫瑰城堡酒,來自聲譽卓著的聖愛斯特夫產區,是波爾多釀酒傳統的典範。這款酒呈現深邃、幾乎不透明的紅寶石色澤,香氣仍在演變中,緊實的紅醋栗果香與豐富的雪松橡木交織。口感上,它展現出濃郁而深沉的特質,橡木單寧的核心。較高的酒精含量為這款酔人的酒帶來溫暖的餘韻,儘管目前顯得缺乏柔和度,但隨著時間的推移,它承諾將展開更多層次。建議醒酒約一小時,以增強其複雜性。搭配烤紅肉、烤羊肉、成熟的乳酪或土壤味濃郁的蔬菜燉菜,這款酒是該地區天然資產和數百年葡萄栽培精緻化的慶典。
The 1999 Chateau Montrose, hailing from the esteemed Saint-Estephe appellation, is a testament to the grandeur of Bordeaux's winemaking tradition. This vintage reveals a deep, almost opaque ruby-red hue, with a bouquet that is still evolving, offering tight redcurrant fruit ensconced in abundant cedary oak. On the palate, it presents a dense and brooding character, with a core of oaky tannins. The high alcohol content lends a warm finish to this robust wine, which, while currently showing a lack of suppleness, promises to unfold with time. Decanting for about an hour is recommended to enhance its complexity. Perfectly paired with grilled red meats, roast lamb, mature cheeses, or earthy vegetable stews, this wine is a celebration of the region's natural assets and centuries of viticultural refinement.
