魔丽诺老藤混酿白葡萄酒
Mullineux Swartland Old Vines White Blend

年       份：2022
酒       庄：马利诺酒庄（Mullineux）
葡萄品种：白诗南，维欧尼，白歌海娜(Chenin Blanc, Viognier, Grenache Blanc)
产       区：南非，黑地

葡萄园：
老藤混酿白葡萄酒的原料来自8个可持续耕作的地块，这些地块的树龄高达66年。Kasteelberg的片岩土壤是具有结构感的白诗南、维德和、白克莱尔和白歌海娜的家园。为了平衡这一点，我们在Paardeberg种植灰赛美蓉、维欧尼和白诗南，发现了花岗岩土壤带给葡萄酒固有的清新和芬芳。最后，富含铁质土壤的葡萄园创造了优雅的白诗南，被用来完成这款葡萄酒的混合。

酿造：
当每个地块采收后，葡萄在我们的冷藏室中冷藏，然后整串压榨，葡萄汁静置一晚。添加少量二氧化硫，和我们所有的葡萄酒一样，没有其他额外添加物。然后将葡萄汁装入橡木桶中，使用本地酵母发酵，发酵时间持续大约8周。这款酒进行酒泥陈酿直到春天。在此期间，也完成了苹果酸乳酸发酵。

品酒笔记：这款酒是我们对Swartland产区质地和复杂性的标志性表达。将老藤白诗南与地中海品种混合在一起，酿造出一款馥郁芬芳的葡萄酒，带有碎石、白肉桂、油桃和打火石的风味。饱满的层次感与充满活力的酸度，黄色葡萄柚和淡淡的香料味相得益彰。饮用温度10-12℃，这款酒在装瓶后的3年内饮用会呈现很好的风味。

Vineyard：
Old Vines White was on 8 sustainably farmed parcels that are up to 66 years old. The Schist soils of Kasteelberg are home to structured Chenin Blanc, Verdelho, Clarette Blanche and Grenache Blanc. To balance this, freshness and fragrance inherent in wines from Granite soils, are found in our Semillon Gris, Viognier and Chenin Blanc, grown on the Paardeberg. Finally, an Iron soil vineyard which creates Chenin Blanc with elegant intensity, was used to complete this Swartland white blend.

Winemaking:
As each parcel was harvested, the grapes were chilled in our cold room. The grapes were then pressed whole-bunch and the juice was allowed to settle overnight. Minimal SO2 was added and, as with all our wines, no other additions were made. The juice was then racked to barrel indigenous yeasts fermentation and lasted approximately 8 weeks. The wine was left without additional sulphur on its lees until spring. During this time the wine finished malolactic fermentation.

Characteristics:
Pale straw in colour, this wine has a nose of ripe, green citrus fruit and Christmas spices. The palate is fresh and richly textured, with notes of ripe pears, almonds and peaches, and a clove-like finish. Best served at about 12 ˚C, this wine will show optimally when decanted in the first 3 years after bottling.
