Tasting note

這瓶來自蒙岱維家族於納帕谷的作品，入口先是飽滿的黑色果實和巧克力香氣，緊接著有烘烤橡木與香草的溫暖層次。口感偏向濃郁厚實，但質地奶油般圓潤，單寧明顯卻不生澀，帶來良好支撐與乾淨的收結。釀造上可感受到橡木桶的陳年影響與細緻的乳酸發酵痕跡，讓酒體更柔順。葡萄園生長在納帕谷典型的晝夜溫差環境，日間積累成熟度，夜間保留酸度與香氣，使得酒款既有力量也保有平衡。建議醒瓶約一小時，搭配燒烤牛排、烤羊或陳年起司最為合適。

A powerful, polished Napa Valley red that opens with aromas of ripe dark fruits and cocoa, moving into layers of toasted oak, vanilla and subtle spice. The palate is full-bodied and creamy, showing concentrated fruit framed by substantial yet smooth tannins and a rounded mid-palate. Oak influence gives a toasty, cedary edge while a lingering finish keeps the wine approachable now and cellar-worthy through the decade. Ideal with rich grilled meats and aged cheeses; decant for about an hour to show best.
