Mâcon-Pierreclos 1er Jus de Chavigne 2019 Domaine Guffens-Heynen

MACON-PIERRECLOS TRI DE CHAVIGNE

一番搾りだけを掬った、澄んだ果汁。

プレスの最初に流れ出る、最も澄んだ果汁だけを掬い上げた稀少なキュヴェです。標高の高いシャヴィーニュの古樹から丁寧に選び抜かれました。淡いレモンイエローに、オレンジオイルや柑橘の皮、香ばしいトースト、洋梨の香り。紅玉のような赤リンゴやピーチスキン、軽いくるみのニュアンスも重なります。圧倒的な凝縮感を備えながらシームレスで、生き生きとした酸と塩気を帯びた余韻が長く続きます。甘鯛の松笠焼きとともに。

Tasting note

Pale lemon yellow. Aromas of orange oil, citrus peel, toasted bread, and pear rise from the glass. Notes of red apple like Kougyoku, peach skin, and light walnut add to a focused and elegant profile. Medium to full-bodied, with overwhelming concentration and completeness, yet a seamless and penetrating flavor. Lively acidity underpins the wine, concluding with a long, saline finish. It possesses magnificent acidity and a mineral line that rivals its richness, with a length of finish comparable to many Premier Crus of the Côte d'Or.
