2024 Te Whare Ra Single Vineyard 5182 Gewurztraminer

品飲筆記：杯中先是馥郁的花香，伴隨熱帶果與白桃皮的細緻果香，還有一抹香料與微甜的蜂蜜感。入口中等酒體，質地如絲綢般滑順，果實飽滿但保有明快的酸度，尾韻帶點辛香，層次分明。酒莊背景：辰居酒莊位於馬爾堡，專注單一園表現，重視田間管理與手工採收，追求果實純淨與地塊特色。釀造方式：採冷藏並控制發酵，以保存香氣，輕柔壓榨與短期澱粉接觸增加口感厚度，瓶口採用旋蓋保存清新。葡萄園環境：海洋性氣候帶來日夜溫差，土壤排水良好，適合生長出香氣集中、酸度明亮的果實。飲用建議：冰鎮後稍微醒置約20分鐘，香氣會更活躍；非常適合搭配帶香料的亞洲料理或油脂豐富的豬肉料理。

Tasting Note: An immediately aromatic wine—lifted florals and tropical fruit lead, with white peach skin, a lick of sweet spice and a subtle honeyed lift. The palate is medium-bodied with a satin-smooth texture, ripe fruit core and a lively citrus-tinged acid line that carries a persistent, gently spicy finish. Producer Notes: From Te Whare Ra’s single-vineyard focus, this bottling highlights site expression and aromatic intensity. The winery favours low-intervention farming and careful hand-harvests to capture clean, varietal-driven aromatics. Winemaking Notes: Grapes are picked to retain freshness, with cool, controlled fermentation to preserve perfume and primary fruit. Gentle handling, light lees contact for texture and bottled under screw-cap to lock in freshness. Vineyard Notes: Sourced from Marlborough soils with good drainage and maritime influence; vines are managed for balanced yields and expressive fruit. Drinking Window: approachable now and will develop through the next several years. Serving: chill lightly and allow a short rest (about 20 minutes) after opening to let aromatics bloom.
