Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion 2012 Pessac-Leognan
シルクの舌触りに、芯のあるタンニン。
熟したブラックチェリーやプラム、カシスの凝縮感ある果実香に、スモークや杉、リコリス、スパイスが重なる複雑なアロマが印象的です。口当たりはシルキーでありながら芯のあるタンニンが感じられ、果実の甘みとフレッシュな酸が見事に調和します。余韻にはミネラルと焙煎香がゆっくりと広がり、優雅で緻密な構成力を物語ります。今も魅力的ですが、さらなる熟成で一層の深みを。鴨胸肉のローストとともに。
Tasting note
The wine has a concentrated fruity aroma of ripe black cherries, plums, and cassis, with a complex aroma of smoke, cedar, licorice, and spices. The mouthfeel is silky yet has a core of tannins, with a wonderful balance between the sweetness of the fruit and the fresh acidity. The aftertaste is full of minerals and roasted aromas, which speak of the wine's elegant and precise structure. It is still attractive now, but further aging will likely improve its depth.
Food pairing
Roasted duck breast with berry sauce, beef fillet steak with truffle sauce, grilled lamb with herbs
