2023 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron Blanc

來自石灰岩坡的清朗白酒，礦物感與口腔張力讓人一口愛上。

【為什麼選它？】
1. 田地特質 -> Boua 區冷涼黏土＋石灰岩，帶來明亮酸度與火石式礦感，喝來清爽但有深度。
2. 血統來源 -> 葡萄用的是從 Château Suduiraut 的母株選取，果實集中、香氣純淨，品質穩定。
3. 橡木處理 -> 9 個月法國橡木桶陳化，增添奶油與堅果質感，但不蓋掉礦物與柑橘層次。

【侍酒師私房筆記】張口先是青檸和葡萄柚的清脆，接著芒果、哈密瓜帶出微豐腴的蠟質感；中段有烤榛果與淡淡奶油，尾段收於鹽感與火石味。冷藏後先醒二十分鐘，口感會更飽滿。想像一個週末傍晚，朋友在露台上配烤三文魚，大家邊聊邊添杯——很容易就會把第二瓶拿出來。

【場景化配餐指南】下班後配香煎三文魚；週末和家人分享海鮮拼盤；或配一道有奶香的法式軟芝士，既有對比也能互相襯托。

【降維打擊對比】比起同類大牌白酒，Les Griffons 給你標誌性的產區風格與母本選株的深度，但價格更親民——品質彷彿是「名莊味道、二牌價位」。

A mineral-born Bordeaux blanc from Pichon Baron's limestone plots — refined, layered and strikingly saline.

【Why choose it?】
- Terroir-driven precision -> Cool clay-limestone yields bright acidity and a flinty backbone that lifts every sip.
- Estate provenance -> Massal-selection vines from Château Suduiraut give concentrated aromatic depth and pedigree.
- Smart oak ageing -> Nine months in French oak adds texture without hiding the fresh fruit and minerality.

【Sommelier's private note】Alexandra Lebossé has fashioned a white that balances waxy, tropical fruit with taut, citrus acidity. Expect lime, grapefruit and mango at the forefront, a toasted-nut undercurrent and a saline, stony finish — lively now after a short rest, but with ageworthiness for a decade or more.

【Occasions】Perfect for a weekend dinner with seared salmon, a refined family gathering with cheese plates, or a rooftop sharing platter featuring rich seafood.

【Competitive Edge】Compared with many big-name whites, Les Griffons offers Pauillac-level terroir clarity and estate grafting pedigree at a surprisingly approachable price — serious provenance without the trophy markup.

Winery

Château Pichon-Longueville Baron（碧尚男爵）由 AXA Millésimes 擁有，名聲以 Pauillac 紅酒著稱。這支二牌白酒延續莊園對田地與母株選育的要求：小地塊、精細管理、以及適度的法國橡木陳年，由釀酒師 Alexandra Lebossé 與田間經理 Aymeric Hervy 共同把關。

Château Pichon-Longueville Baron is a prestigious Pauillac estate now under AXA Millésimes. Best known for its grand red terroirs, the domain's white project applies the same attention to site selection, massal vine material and careful oak ageing. Les Griffons is made from a tiny, well-sited parcel and overseen by winemaker Alexandra Lebossé and viticulturist Aymeric Hervy.
