由美多客代理的姆利達侯爵酒莊Castillo Ygay Red Gran Reserva Especial 1978伊格莊園特級精選紅酒,這是一支數量有限的精選酒款,全球僅發行1250箱。Gran Reserva Especial Castillo Ygay只在最好的年份才進行釀造,並依當年葡萄的特性決定其釀造方式。1978年這一支酒款在裝瓶之前,已經在美國橡木桶中存放216個月之久,這就是為什麼她一直到1998年才裝瓶上市。 原價7800 特價4000/瓶 (7月底) 採用了75% Tempranillo田帕尼歐,12% Mazuelo 瑪佐羅、10% Garnacha 格納西,3% Graciano嘉西諾葡萄品種釀製,酒體適中,散發著絕頂精緻的陳年香氣:西洋杉、皮革、亞洲辛香料、礦物,以及紅色與黑色漿果等複雜風味以一種相當熟成的方式呈現,有趣的是,這支酒款卻還保有年輕的口感,一點也不顯老態。豐富、高雅、集中、風味飽滿,這支具有美麗均衡度的酒款現在即可以飲用,其適飲期更可長達至少12∼15年。事實上,就最近才飲用的一瓶1952年份看來,這支酒至少還可以存放50年。- Rober Parker,2008年4月 There are just 1250 cases of the exceptional 1978 Gran Reserva Especial Castillo Ygay. Only in the greatest vintages (1917, 1925, 1934, 1942, 1952, 1959, 1964, 1968, 1970, and this 1978) is a portion of the wine held back for extended cask aging. The wine is a blend of 75% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha, 12% Mazuelo, and 3% Graciano aged for 216 months in American oak barriques. The wine was bottled in 1998. Medium ruby-colored, it has a super-expressive bouquet of cedar, leather, Asian spices, mineral, and assorted red and black fruits with the kind of complexity that only extended aging can provide. Remarkably youthful on the palate, the wine shows little sign of age. Ripe, elegant, concentrated, and full-flavored, this beautifully balanced wine can be enjoyed now and should continue to drink well for at least another 12-15 years. Indeed, having recently shared a bottled of the 1952 Castillo Ygay, it seems likely that this 1978 will also have a 50 year lifespan. -By Robert Parker 2008
