2021 Les Champs de Themis Bouzeron 'Les Corcelles'

【侍酒師私房筆記】
想像一下，喺一個悶熱嘅夏日黃昏，一啖冰鎮好嘅白酒入口，瞬間好似有一陣帶住海水鹹香嘅涼風吹過——呢款嚟自 Bouzeron 精華單一田 'Les Corcelles' 嘅白酒就係有呢種魔力！酒莊主人 Xavier 本身係個講求極致完美嘅前地方法官，佢將呢份一絲不苟搬到葡萄園度，實行有機耕作，呢片富含石灰岩嘅土地賦予咗呢支酒招牌嘅「打火石」礦物感。

最精彩嘅係，同一般爽直嘅平庸白酒唔同，呢款酒用咗橡木桶熟成。入口除咗有極之乾淨、醒神嘅檸檬同青蘋果酸度之外，中段會慢慢滲出好似牛油麵包、淡淡雲呢拿嘅圓潤口感，最後以極具張力嘅鹹礦物感完美收尾，層次豐富到令人停唔下口。成個年份產量得嗰 2,000 支，分到嚟香港嘅量極少，絕對係識貨之人嘅私房心水！

【Sommelier's Private Notes】
Imagine a breezy coastal walk captured in a glass. This single-vineyard masterpiece from the 'Les Corcelles' plot in Bouzeron showcases a breathtaking mineral drive. Crafted by Xavier Moissenet, a former magistrate who applies absolute precision to his organic vineyards, this wine is a masterclass in terroir expression. The limestone-rich soils impart a striking flinty, salty energy that dances on the palate.

What sets this apart from typical crisp whites is its thoughtful oak maturation. It opens with vibrant citrus and white blossom aromas, moving into a beautifully textured mid-palate reminiscent of fresh brioche and subtle vanilla, before culminating in a long, mouth-watering saline finish. With only 2,000 bottles produced globally, this is an incredibly rare, insider-only find that outshines wines twice its price.
