【📝概述】
🇪🇸 在西班牙 A Coroa 莊園工作的朋友 Marta 將兩款非常棒的葡萄酒作為禮物送給我。
Coroa 莊園位於西班牙加利西亞 Galicia 、比爾佐 Bierzo 西部、奧倫塞省 Ourense 北部的錫爾 Sil 河岸邊的 DO Valdeorras 區（意為黃金谷）。 錫爾谷 Sil Valley 屬於微氣候，會將大量降雨的大西洋氣候模式和導致夏季炎熱的大陸氣候模式結合在一起。
葡萄藤通常種植在陡峭的斜坡和梯田上。 所有完美熟成的葡萄的條件都在這邊成立！A Coroa 是1750年成立的最著名、最古老的莊園之一。
他們於2002年開始了一個新計畫項目，使莊園更加完整、現代化。 他們專門從事格德約 Godello 葡萄酒生產，雖然沒有如鄰居 Rias Baixas 的 Albarino 那樣出名，但我認為這值得讓更多人熟知 Godello 的美好，因為它可以產生精緻、果味、花香和結構良好的葡萄酒 。
他們的第二款酒是：A COROA Ladeira Vella 2017 - DO Valdeorras, Galicia, Spain.
實際上，A Coroa不僅生產格德約 Godello 白葡萄酒，還用格那希丁朵蕾拉 Garnacha Tintorera 品種的葡萄（也稱為 Alicante Bouschet）生產紅葡萄酒，這是為數不多、帶有紅色的果肉的 Teinturier 葡萄之一。格那希 Garnacha 被種植在一個名為 O RASEDO 的地塊上，是該莊園中最古老、最小的地塊；高於地面380 公尺，葡萄藤超過80/90年。 它的生產不到3000瓶。
釀造熟成：於不銹鋼槽中的酒精發酵後並在225公升的法國橡木桶中熟成12個月。
【🍇葡萄品種 & 酒精含量】
100% 格那希丁朵蕾拉 Garnacha Tintorera, 15% ABV。
【👀視覺印象】
稍微帶紫的深紅寶石色。
【👃嗅覺香氣】
帶有明顯的黑李子、黑醋栗、櫻桃、紫羅蘭花、肉桂、甘草、丁香、雪松和土壤香氣。
【👅味覺品嘗】
香氣類似於鼻子但香料和黑色水果的香氣更加脫穎而出。 尾韻的香料味悠長。 中等單寧、中等偏高的酸度、酒體豐滿、高酒精度。
這款酒非常滑順好入口！ 它就像絲綢在嘴裡一樣，橡木和單寧的香氣完美地整合，優雅、細緻、平衡、充滿香料芳香並有非常新鮮的酸度。 一個美好的體驗。
【🍷簡單結論】
非常棒的格那希丁朵蕾拉 Garnacha Tintorera，我對這種葡萄的品種並不是很熟悉，真的是給我留下了深刻的印象。 它同時具有力量和優雅，還有著完美的結構。 必須嘗試看看的一款酒！
【📝Brief intro】
🇪🇸 2 fantastic wines were sent to me as a gift by my friend Marta who works for the estate “A Coroa” located in the DO Valdeorras in Galicia, Spain.
A Coroa is one of the most famous and oldest estates there, established in 1750. They started a new project in 2002 resulting in the complete modernization of the estate. They are specialized in the production of wine from Godello (a white grape variety), not as famous as the Albarino from the neighbor Rias Baixas, but which I think deserves recognition since it can produce exquisite, fruity, floral and very well-structured wines.
Second wine: A COROA Ladeira Vella 2017 - DO Valdeorras, Galicia, Spain.
Actually, A COROA doesn’t only make white wine from Godello, but they also produce red wine from the Garnacha Tintorera variety (also known as Alicante Bouschet), one of the few teinturier grapes (with red flesh!). The Garnacha is cultivated on a plot named named “O Rasedo”, the oldest and smallest plot of the estate, at 380 m above ground level, with vines over 80/90 years old. it’s a small production of fewer than 3000 bottles. Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks.
Maturation: 12 months in 225 liters French oak barrels.
【🍇Grapes & ABV】
100% Garnacha Tintorera, 15% ABV.
【👀To the eye】
Deep ruby with purple hints.
【👃Nose】
Pronounced aromas of black plum, blackcurrant, cherry, violet, cinnamon, liquorice, cloves, cedar, and earth.
【👅Palate】
Pronounced aromas similar to the nose with lot of spices and black fruits aromas which stand out. A long smooth finish on the spices. Medium tannin, Medium+ acidity, full body, high alcohol. This wine is incredibly smooth! It’s like silk in the mouth, aromas from oak and tannins are perfectly integrated, it’s elegant, subtle, balanced, spicy, with very fresh acidity. A wonderful experience.
【🍷 Conclusion】
Incredible Garnacha Tintorera, I’m not familiar with this grape variety, and I must say I was really impressed. It has power and elegance at the same time combined with a perfect structure. A must-try!
