云雾之湾缇华怡黑皮诺红葡萄酒 2016

Cloudy Bay Te Wahi Pinot Noir, Central Otago, New Zealand 

酒精度：14.3%vol 类型：干型 WS:91

云雾之湾缇华怡提炼出最南端的内陆黑比诺风土的特质。丰富的樱桃和李子的果实，带有有橡木的肉桂和丁香的味道。

坐在水果、泥土和矿物的烟雾中，这是由令人愉悦的花香所带出来的口感甜美的果味和丰富质感。酒体浓郁由清晰的酸度和柔和平衡的单宁在 Bannockburn, Bendigo and Lowburn 这几个子产区中挑选了葡萄园，主产区Cromwell bassin是以含壤土的石英砂和云母为基岩的土壤。

Te Wahi is our limited release Pinot Noir from Central Otago. ‘Te Wahi’, is a Maori saying depicting, “the place”. 

Cloudy Bay believes that great Pinot Noir speaks of its origin and Te Wahi provides our encapsulation of the extremely southerly and continental Pinot Noir terroir of Central Otago.

“It takes time to understand ‘the place’,” says Viticulturist Jim White. 

“With our work in this region, we have come to learn the raw terroir and to hone our skills in expressing Central Otago Pinot Noir through the Cloudy Bay winemaking lens.” White adds that, 

“In exploring the greater landscape of New Zealand Pinot Noir, we will continue to hone our skills as viticulturists and winemakers.”

From vintage 2015, Te Wahi is a blend of grapes from two special vineyard sites, the silky and dense Calvert vineyard on Felton Road in Bannockburn and Cloudy Bay's newly acquired rugged structural Northburn vineyard on the East bank of Lake Dunstan. 

The Calvert vineyard consists of uniform silty loam soils, formed as part of an ancient lake bed with an altitude of 230m. 

The Northburn vineyard has mix of 3 soil types, all of glacial origin, across the sloping site at 220-275m of altitude. 

These complimentary sites share lineage and potential, as well as finesse and power. 

“The Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir program was initiated in the early 1990s with the goal of making the most expressive Pinot Noir wines from New Zealand,” comments Senior Winemaker, Tim Heath. 

“We are enjoying the adventure of exploring this exciting and relatively new wine region and have been very fortunate to secure two excellent and unique vineyards in Calvert and Northburn.

 These carefully selected and cultivated sites are the foundation of our own special Cloudy Bay expression of Central Otago Pinot Noir.”

食物搭配：

Norcia，一个隐藏在中央山脉迷人的意大利中部小镇。它的气候和当地品种的橡树是得以在冬季烹饪黑松露的主要因素。这种高贵的产品芳香而强烈，增强了缇华怡的芳香。让人在冬季一个暖融融的壁炉旁享受这款美酒。

在中国秋冬季节是吃北京烤鸭的极佳时间。美味的脆皮，肉嫩可口。这种精致的菜肴需要清淡的果味黑比诺。当与北京烤鸭一起食用时，葡萄酒的柔滑单宁和清淡的口感让回味悠长。

明尼苏达州的北部，毗邻加拿大边境，因为凉爽的天气和大面积的森林地区是一个理想的环境。冬天是吃鹿肉的时候。在慢慢炖的时候，鹿肉有一种微妙的味道和一种高雅的鲜味。对这一高贵的野味，缇华怡的浓郁和烘烤香味是极美的搭配。

Morcilla，又称黑布丁，是这款香肠中最精致的一种。阿根廷的morcilla不太肥，而且给人一种辛辣的感觉。提供平衡的一个好方法，就是采用缇华怡搭配。这款酒结构很强劲，可以和香肠一起吃，而且有一点陈年橡木的味道和阿根廷烤肉风格完全吻合。
