Tasting note

品飲筆記：杯中先是成熟的黑果與黑醋栗香，逐漸轉為煙草、香草與土地氣息，還有一抹煙燻杏仁的微妙風味。口感飽滿，單寧圓潤且像絲絨般包裹味覺，橡木香與香料為整體帶來結構但不喧賓奪主。生產與田區：保捷坐落於Grand Poujeaux坡頂，約70公頃的園地以更新世礫石為主，密植、重視根系深扎，採收以小籃手工進行，注重細緻分選。釀造方式：人工與光學分選並進，整串發酵並採取溫和浸皮手法，隨後於法國橡木桶中熟成一年（50%新桶），呈現成熟、層次豐富但仍保有優雅的中長尾韻。建議飲用時先醒約45分鐘，搭配烤牛排、燒烤紅肉或硬質陳年起司最為合拍。

Tasting Note: Mature and classic, this bottle opens with black-currant fruit and deeper notes of tobacco, dried herbs, earth and a touch of smoked almond. On the palate it is full-bodied with round, velvety tannins, a core of dark fruit and restrained oak spice from a year in French barrels (50% new). Producer & Vineyard: Château Poujeaux, a family-held estate on the summit slopes of Grand Poujeaux in Moulis-en-Médoc, farms roughly 70 hectares on predominantly quaternary gravel with a high-density planting (10,000 vines/ha). Harvest is hand-picked into small baskets. Winemaking: Meticulous sorting by hand and optical selection, whole-berry fermentation with gentle extraction and careful ageing for one year in French oak (half new) yields a wine that balances concentration with elegance. Drinking Window: originally recommended 2006–2018; the wine shows mature tertiary notes now — decant gently (about 45 minutes) to lift the aromatics. Best with grilled or roasted red meats and aged cheeses.
