1300, The family wine history begins. Marchesi de’ Frescobaldi這家超級老店位於義大利著名的Tuscany產區,也是目前在Tuscany區擁有最大面積葡萄園的公司。現在旗下的莊園有Castello di Nipozzano、Castello di Pomino、Castel Giocondo、Tenuta di Castiglioni、Tenuta dell'Ammiraglia、Santa Maria、Costa di Nugola、LUCE della VITE等,其中在1995年,Marchesi de’ Frescobaldi與美國著名酒廠Robert Mondavi共同在Montalcino西南方的古老小鎮成立了LUCE della VITE (現已100%股權屬Marchesi de’ Frescobaldi),釀造了Super Toscana---Luce。
這次品嚐的Frescobaldi Castel Giocondo
2004雖不是它的最高等級但獲得美國知名雜誌的高度評價,2009年百大的第15名,Wine
Spectator每年都會挑選出年度百大,雖有些人質疑評判標準很奇怪但其影響力還是很大。個人認為還是有相當高度的參考價值,至於Frescobaldi Castel Giocondo
2004是否有資格為2009的百大第15名,請參考各知名雜誌的評鑑以及我這次的感想吧。附帶一提,2004是義大利這產區的大年,不少酒品嚐過後確實有極大實力與潛力,酒友們可挑選一些不錯的04酒並好好在酒窖裡保存幾年吧。
"Shows a complex nose of blackberry, tanned leather,
sandalwood and cedar. Fascinating. Full-bodied, with supersilky
tannins and a long, long finish. Concentrated yet balanced.
Beautiful and complete. Best after 2011. 17,000 cases made." 95
points - Wine Spectator, April 30,
2009
"The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is a big, super-ripe wine bursting with fruit. This deep, concentrated Brunello is incredibly fresh and vibrant. Although the sweet tannins make the wine very accessible at this stage, readers in search of a more complex drinking experience will want to give this Brunello a few years in bottle. The 2004 Brunello from Castelgiocondo is a lovely effort from the Frescobaldi family and one of the finest vintages to be produced at the property. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2022." 90 points - The Wine Advocate, Issue 183 (JUNE 2009)
開瓶時,沉悶的梅子、水果乾、藥草與香料香氣,M body,口中香氣未出,finish順口中帶有勁度與酸度,需醒一段時間。
30分,香料、藥草與香水香氣為主體,香氣越見明顯且柔和舒服,口中甜果香也出現,其均衡度相當不錯。
1~1.5小時,藥草、中藥為主,夾帶香料香氣其之前的水果、梅子香已不在,M-F body,酒體此時最適中飽滿,口中出現不錯的香料香,finish之勁度強且不短。
2小時,香水、紅花、香料香氣,香氣濃郁舒服,但口感開始走下坡。
整體中上,現已應該喝,也可再放3年左右,但陳年後的變化應不大。
