勃根地的黑皮諾葡萄樹種,種植在酒莊排水最優良的地塊,加上寒冷卻充足的陽光,能夠獲得堅實飽滿的小顆葡萄果粒,蘊藏著濃縮的大自然風味,發酵前完全去梗,發酵前與發酵中都稍微浸皮,這樣步驟帶出了更多皮中的酚類芳香,陳年於60%新法國橡木桶中,是酒莊的旗艦黑皮諾。
擁有黑櫻桃、堅果、野味、辛香料與橡木桶帶來的圓滑香草氣息,有極為集中的堅實酒質,天鵝絨般的絲滑結構中帶著豐富而細膩的單寧顆粒,被包覆在層層的漿果與森林地塊風味之中,有非常好的陳年實力,這款『馬可之愛』可輕易陳年到2030年。
The Great Marco is a small bottling of specially selected 2009 Martinborough pinot noir. The wine is a blend of the Burgundian clones 777 and 667 Pinot noir grown on our Pencarrow Vineyard. This vineyard, with shallow soils over free draining gravel sub soils normally produces our best pinot noir and in 2009 with an excellent growing season this was again the case.
With excellent composition at harvest and nice ripe grape tannins the grapes were destemmed, cool soaked for 5 days then fermented warm and then kept on skins for an extended period to build a supple but substantial phenolics profile.
Matured in oak casks for 16 months with sixty percent new oak used.
