ERA Napa Valley 2009
|
酒评:
颜色：深樱桃色的明亮宝石红，边缘处泛出紫色的光泽。
气味：充满黑葡萄和黑莓平衡的清香，同时融合了雪杉树，雪茄，肉豆蔻，百里香，黑胡椒的气味。也包含了少量的玫瑰花瓣，薰衣草和紫罗兰的味道。
味觉： 浓郁的入口的新鲜采摘的黑樱桃味道同时平衡了酸味和天鹅绒般柔软的单宁，融合了橡木，欧亚甘草，李子，巧克力和木霉的味道，延绵出黑葡萄果酱的味道。

酿酒师笔记：
成分：赤霞珠 80%； 梅洛5%； 味儿多8%。
产季：在2009年我们拥有了这个季节的平稳的温度，就有了非常连续性的季节，这样就给我们的葡萄提供了稍微高的酸性。 尽管在10月份的纳帕山谷有个较大的暴风雨，而且在接下来的两个星期之后又受到雨水的打扰。这个事件导致了大部分的酿酒师在雨季之前采摘他们的葡萄。但是AO决定让这些葡萄度过这场雨去获得更好的单宁。我们有特别的系统，所以我们有能力不按照一般标准去分类我们的葡萄。这个葡萄的产量非常的少，但是他们都拥有完美的成熟果实。这款葡萄是更像波尔多葡萄酒，酒精度低。
此款酒过人的单宁可以使酒储存25年。在美国已售完，中国总代理有非常少的限量。

Experience the truth behind great wines in the vineyard. AO’s winemakers
believe in sourcing fruit from various appellations to bring complexity and char-
acter to each wine utilizing grapes from historically significant vineyards
throughout the Napa Valley. Understanding the differences of each appellation
is a challenge in itself. After your vineyard visit, taste the difference of a varietal
from multiple appellations within Napa Valley. To cap off your vineyard tour,
enjoy the finished product that results from blending grapes from hillside, valley
floor and mountain vineyards.
What facts in the vineyard express to the winemaker it is time to harvest? Where
is the next destination for harvested grapes? Enjoy this interactive walking tour
from the vineyard to the crush pad. Travel into the barrel and tank room following
the fermentation process. Experience the journey from the vine into the bottle
while sipping and learning about the production of Alpha Omega wines.
The cheese you select is dependent on the wine. So how do we know which
cheese pairs best with our selected wine? At what temperature do we store and
serve cheese? How best do we serve a cheese and wine course? Walk away
from this course confident in how to pair wine and cheese and develop the tools
necessary to present wine and cheese. These topics and others are covered in
an in-depth wine and cheese pairing and tasting course
