Le Pilou 2017 Olivier Pithon
樹齢100年のカリニャン、手縫いの一本。
石灰岩の台地に寄り添う、樹齢100年を超えるカリニャンだけで仕立てたキュヴェです。深みのあるルビー色、縁には紫がかった輝き。ブラックチェリーや完熟プラムの凝縮した香りに、ドライハーブ、スミレ、ほのかなスモーク、石灰質のニュアンスが層をなします。滑らかなアタックから深い旨味と活き活きとした酸が調和し、シルキーなタンニンが品格を与えます。ラムチョップの香草グリルとともに。
Tasting note
Deep ruby color with purple hues on the rim, suggesting youthfulness and concentration. The aroma of concentrated black fruits such as black cherries and ripe plums rises from the glass. Over time, dry herbs, violets, a hint of smoke, and limestone from minerals spread in layers. A dense, complex, and elegant aroma. The attack is very smooth and delicate. The deep flavor and lively acidity of Carignan grapes over 100 years old are beautifully harmonized, and the silky tannins give the wine structure and dignity. From the middle to the latter half, a floral and iron-like minerality emerges, and the aftertaste is very long, fading quietly with a refined acidity.
Food pairing

This wine is made only from Carignan, the finest variety in the Domaine. It is made from grapes over 100 years old that grow on the limestone plateau. This wine is made from beautiful grapes that have been lovingly tended, and is as carefully crafted as if it were hand-sewn. It brings out the unique character of the noble Carignan variety to the fullest, expressing its charm. It is juicy and rich, with smoky, finely textured tannins and a smooth minerality that lingers in your mouth.
