Tasting note
2011年的碧尚拉龍-女爵展現了波亞克葡萄酒的優雅與精緻。這款中等酒體、質地柔和的紅酒,讓人聯想到鄰近的聖朱利安產區。它融合了黑櫻桃、紅色和黑色醋栗的果香,口感上帶有黑加侖子和成熟黑莓的風味,並由細膩的雪松單寧所框架,構成了結構良好的酒體。深邃的風味中帶有黑巧克力和烤焙的細微氣息,新鮮的酸度確保了持久而振奮的尾韻。建議醒酒一小時,以充分展現其複雜性。這款波亞克紅酒非常適合搭配烤羊肉或牛肉紅酒燉、蘑菇燴飯以及陳年起司。
The 2011 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a testament to the elegance and finesse that Pauillac wines can offer. With a medium body and a suave texture reminiscent of its St.-Julien neighbors, this wine presents a harmonious blend of black cherry, red and black currant fruit. The palate is graced with notes of cassis and ripe blackberry, framed by subtle cedary tannins that contribute to its well-structured profile. The wine's depth of flavor is enhanced by hints of dark chocolate and toasted nuances, while the fresh acidity ensures a lifted and enduring finish. Decanting for an hour is recommended to fully appreciate its complexity. This Pauillac is a delightful accompaniment to rich dishes such as roast lamb or beef bourguignon, as well as a perfect match for mushroom risotto and aged cheeses.
