【📝概述】
🇦🇷 3 款精美葡萄酒 PART 1。由阿根廷胡胡伊的 Fernando Dupont 酒莊（位於薩爾塔北部）釀造。 多虧了 Patricio Dupont，我才有機會發掘他們家的葡萄酒，Patricio 是 Fernando 的侄子，也是法國 Vinos de Altura 企業的物主，極力推廣胡胡伊和 Fernando Dupont 莊園產出的葡萄酒。
Dupont 莊園位於 Quebrada de Humahuaca 地區（2013 年已被聯合國教科文組織列為世界遺產），海平面 2500 公尺以上，是世界上最高的莊園之一，周圍環繞著由山脈、仙人掌和岩石構成的壯麗景觀。 靠近玻利維亞邊境，該地區太熱而無法釀造葡萄酒，由於海拔高使 Fernando Dupont 莊園可栽培葡萄。
今天介紹的第一款酒是：Sikuri 2017 - IG Quebrada de Humahuaca, Jujuy, Argentina.
熟成：在新波爾多橡木桶中陳釀 9 個月。
【🍇葡萄品種 & 酒精含量】
100% 希哈 Syrah, 15% ABV。
【👀視覺印象】
深紫色。
【👃嗅覺香氣】
有明顯的黑胡椒、成熟的黑李子、黑醋栗、櫻桃、紫羅蘭、香草、焦糖、泥土、煙草、甘草香氣。
【👅味覺品嘗】
明顯的香氣類似於鼻子。 焦糖和胡椒的尾韻很長。 中等偏高的酸度、中等單寧、高酒精度、酒體飽滿。
此款酒非常強大、豐富、非常新鮮且同時帶有果味和辛辣味，最後帶有悠長的焦糖/香草味。 單寧順滑，你感覺不到它有 15% 的酒精，留下非常好的回味。Bravo！
【🍷簡單結論】
一款極為出色的希哈紅酒，完美的詮釋了胡胡伊風土的美麗。
【📝Brief intro】
🇦🇷 3 exquisite wines 🇦🇷 PART 1/3 crafted by Fernando Dupont Winery in Jujuy, Argentina (Located northern of Salta). I had the chance to discover those wines thanks to Patricio Dupont, the nephew of Fernando who is the owner of the business Vinos de Altura in France which promotes several estates from Jujuy along with his uncle’s of course.
The Dupont estate is located in the Quebrada de Humahuaca area (UNESCO World Heritage 2013), 2,500 meters above sea level and is one of the highest estates in the world, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes made of mountains, cactus and rocks. Close to the Bolivia border, the area would be too hot to make wines (at ground level), altitude making viticulture possible (as temperature falls by approximately 0.6° every 100 m increase).
First wine I’m gonna introduce is: Sikuri 2017 (IG Quebrada de Humahuaca, Jujuy, Argentina)
Maturation: 9 months in new Bordeaux oak barrels.
【🍇Grapes & ABV】
100% Syrah, 15% ABV.
【👀To the eye】
Deep purple.
【👃Nose】
Pronounced aromas of black pepper, ripe black plum, blackcurrant, cherry, violet, vanilla, caramel, earth, tobacco, liquorice.
【👅Palate】
Pronounced aromas similar to the nose. A very long finish on the caramel and pepper. Medium+ acidity, Medium tannin, High alcohol, Full-body. It’s really powerful, very rich, very fresh, at the same time fruity and spicy, with a lingering caramel / vanilla effect at the end. Tannins are smooth, you don’t feel the 15% alcohol and it leaves you with a very pleasant aftertaste. Bravo!
【🍷 Conclusion】
A magnificent Syrah on steroids, a beautiful expression of the terroir of Jujuy.
⭐Stay tuned for second & third wines review tomorrow / later!
