2019 Markus Molitor Graacher Himmelreich*** Pinot noir Qba Dry

來自Graach「Himmelreich」斜坡的雅緻紅酒，打開杯蓋是明亮的紅果：櫻桃、野莓與蔓越莓，接著溢出花香、細緻香料與泥頁岩帶來的礦質感。口感中等偏勁，酸度清晰活潑，單寧細滑而有支撐感，讓果味更顯層次。收尾長且帶些林下物與香料餘韻，非常適合慢慢品嘗。

酒莊與田地：酒款出自Weingut Markus Molitor，莊園在Mosel以精細的葡萄栽培聞名。這片南向陡坡土壤以泥頁岩為主，日照與冷涼微氣候促成果香與礦感的平衡，產量控制嚴格以保留風土特色。

釀造與口感：採摘講究、入桶前精選果粒，發酵與浸皮處理偏溫和，利用中性與少量小桶成熟來添增口感厚度但不搶果味。酒體有彈性、層次分明，入口絲滑，適合配菇類、烤鴨或成熟硬質乳酪。

A refined expression from Graacher Himmelreich: vibrant red fruits — cherry, cranberry and wild strawberry — open first, followed by floral perfume, subtle spice and a cool, slate-driven minerality. On the palate it is medium-bodied with bright, precise acidity and silky, fine-grained tannins that frame the fruit rather than overpower it. The finish is persistent and savory, leaving a hint of forest floor and spice.

Producer notes: From Weingut Markus Molitor, this wine springs from steep, slate-laden slopes in Graach. The estate is recognised for careful vineyard work, low-yield selection and an emphasis on terroir clarity.

Winemaking notes: Fermented with attentive temperature control and gentle extraction to preserve aromatic lift. Maturation in neutral and small oak vessels adds texture and subtle spice without masking the site character. Bottled after careful assessment to retain freshness and aging potential.

Vineyard notes: Graacher Himmelreich’s south-facing, steep parcels with slate soils and a cool Mosel microclimate lend a crystalline acidity and mineral backbone. Yields are kept low to concentrate flavors and reflect the distinct terroir.
