最喜歡Connawarra 紅酒的尤加利葉香味,傳說是附近尢加利樹多,香味都沾在葡萄上,是否真實就不得而知。Wynns Coonawarra 是南澳Coonawarra 的老大哥,今次有幸見到釀酒師Sue Hodder,和她一起品嚐她在Wynns的第25個vintage。在這支60週年紀念版Black Label 2015 中找到優雅的酸、柔和的單寧和滿滿的茶葉和香料,陪襯著成熟的黑果香和礦物味。及後和2003及1993年並排而喝更見陳年的潛力。最後Sue還和我們分享了只在出年色份才生產的旗艦酒款John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 2003,以口感複雜,充滿香草和花香的酒向這位Coonawarra 葡萄酒先驅的遠見和這片紅土Terra Rossa 致敬
Coonawarra’s cabernet sauvignon always reminds me the Eucalyptus character, that’s why i can always distinguish Coonawarra’s wines from other Aussie’s wine. Wynns Coonawarra Estate is one of the greatest winery, not only in Coonawarra, but in Australia. It was a pleasure having the opportunity to meet Sue Hodder’s 25th vintage with Wynns this year. The Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 was impressively balanced and intense, polished tannin and acidity, lot of spices and tea leaves notes. The vintage 2003 and 1993 demonstrated the excellent aging potential. Sue also shared John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 2003, the wine is produced only in exceptional vintage. Its impressive performance andcomplexity was the tribute to the visionary John Riddoch , the pioneer of Coonwarra and the “Terra Rossa”. Thank you Wynns and Treasury Wine Estates
