菲历士汤姆.凯利迪赤霞珠马贝克红葡萄酒
Vasse Felix Tom Cullity Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec

菲历士酒庄为玛格丽特河的第一家酒庄，由汤姆·布伦丹·卡利缇博士 (Dr Thomas  Brendan Cullity) 于 1967 年创立。他最早在此种植的葡萄便是赤霞珠和马尔贝 克，因而酿造出了酒庄首款红葡萄酒。汤姆•卡利缇源自这些原始葡萄藤，是我们的历史、葡萄产地与年份特色纯粹的诠释，亦是菲历士酒庄标志性代表之作。

产区：澳大利亚玛格丽特河

酿酒师评语：出自 2009 年以来产量醉低的赤霞珠年份的典范，堪称低产年份的优质佳酿。从汤姆古老葡萄园地块手工采摘葡萄，由4月5日至18日，稍晚于平均采收期，因此季节气候温和，延长了葡萄的成熟期。小部分地块的葡萄去梗后不经压榨，借助葡萄本身附着的天然酵母进行野生发酵。赤霞珠地块的葡萄经过静态发酵，通过溅水桶轻轻泵入，浸皮长达33 天，以稳定酒体结构。马尔贝克和部分赤霞珠经手工破皮榨汁后，进行开放式发酵。所有地块的葡萄经轻柔的篮式压榨后，移入占比 66%(旧旧桶占比 34%）的法国新橡木桶中，与酵母酒糟一起陈酿17个月。在整个陈酿过程中保持静置，不触碰橡木桶，只对一个橡木桶进行倒罐和回混(K2 Malbec)。

品酒笔记：外观明亮的石榴红色。香气散发出难以捉摸的果香，让人联想到黑醋栗果酱，并伴有些许干迷迭香与新鲜罗勒的味道。薰衣草和百合馥郁的芬香中，交织着本土夏季森林与新鲜蘑菇的气息。维尔亚布拉普溪畔 (wilyabrup Brook) 干 Peppy 叶淡淡的幽香在杯中升腾，随后而至的便是可可、铅矿及麝香般的沁人香气，葡萄园的美景仿若现于眼前。口感入口丰腴多汁，质地如奶油般丝滑，果味浓郁，富有活力。酒体凝练、优雅，超细腻粉状质感的美妙单宁铺满口腔。余味干爽悠长，萦绕着黑醋栗、黑巧克力及甜橡木诱人的风味。Vintage: 2016

WINEMAKER COMMENTS：The epitome of rare and fine, from the lowest yielding Cabernet  vintage since 2009. Tom’s old blocks were hand-harvested a  little later then average, from 5 - 18 April, having enjoyed gentle,  extended ripening in this mild season. The small sections were  then destemmed, without crushing, and fermented wild with  their natural yeast. The Cabernet parcels were static fermented,  gently pumped over through a splash tub, and then left on skins  for up to 33 days to stabilise and make structurally sound. The  Malbec and some Cabernet Sauvignon were open fermented,  hand plunged and pressed dry. All parcels were basket-pressed  and gently transferred to 66% new (34% old) French oak. Aged  on yeast lees for 17 months, all barrels relaxed, untouched  throughout maturation, with only one single barrel undergoing  one rack and return (K2 Malbec).

Characteristics：
APPEARANCE Bright garnet.
NOSE An incredibly fruit expressive aroma evoking blackcurrant  coulis, with hints of dried rosemary and fresh basil. Pretty floral  perfumes of lavender and lily intermingle with traces of native  summer forest and fungi. Beautiful transparency of vineyard  site is on display as the delicate scent of dried peppy leaf on the  banks of the Wilyabrup Brook lifts in the glass, accompanied by  cacoa, crayon and an intriguing musk like fragrance.
  PALATE A succulent, creamy entrance brimming with vibrant fruit  weight. The concentrated, elegant body embeds on the palate,  framed by a super fine, powdery tannin structure. Relaxed in  its completeness, the comfortable dry finish lingers on with  tantalising flavours of blackcurrant, dark chocolate, and sweet  aromatic oak.
