Le Clarence de Haut-Brion 2016 Pessac-Léognan
濃いガーネットが描く、優雅な力強さ。
豊かな果実味と洗練されたストラクチャーが調和する、クラシカルなボルドーの美点を映す一本です。濃いガーネットの色合いで、グラスを揺らすとカシスやブラックベリーの黒い果実に、ほんのりスパイスとトーストしたオークのニュアンスが広がります。滑らかなタンニンとともに熟した果実味が伸び、バランスのとれた酸が全体を引き締めます。早くから楽しめ、数年の熟成でさらに深みを。鴨のローストやステーキとともに。
Tasting note
This wine stands out for its sophisticated beauty and depth. Its deep garnet color reveals a gorgeous aroma when swirled in the glass. In addition to the aroma of black fruits, especially blackcurrant and blackberry, you can also feel a hint of spice and toasty oak. In the mouth, the smooth tannins and ripe fruit flavors spread, and while it has a firm structure, you can enjoy an elegant mouthfeel. The well-balanced acidity tightens the whole, and the long aftertaste continues pleasantly. It is a wine that can be enjoyed early, but it is expected to gain even more depth with a few years of aging. A wine that is sophisticated, complex and powerful at the same time.
