西班牙之後花園 - Dominio do Bibei Lalama 2010 (Vinous: 92; Jancis Robinson:16)

坐落在人跡旱至的優秀Terroir – DO Ribeira Sacra的精品靚莊Dominio do Bibei，優雅細緻度非常高，最適宜配搭優雅中菜。

Dominio do Bibei 是位於 Ribeira Sacra D.O 分支產區 Quiroga-Bibei，像所有Ribeira Sacra 分支產區一樣，此地區擁有令人歎為觀止的山脈和河流，但比其他分支產區面積較小和乾旱。 Javier Domínguez 就是這個葡萄園的操作者。

在那些梯田上種有 Mencía、Garnacha、Brancellao 和 Mouratón，新田地透過開墾和使用上述品種的老樹而設立，其餘白葡萄品種包括 Doña Blanca、Godello 和 Albariño。這些田地擁有不同面向和土壤種類，因為這裡是接觸 Valdeorras 之處，所以山區的土壤包括頁岩、花崗岩和粘土。

品酒筆記：
(Vinous rating: 92 points)
明亮的紅寶石色彩。芳香奔放，帶有新鮮的紅果、紫羅蘭、煙燻礦物和胡椒香料的香氣，背景中有血橙的味道。多汁、濃郁，黑莓和苦櫻桃的味道充滿活力。單寧的幼細夥粒感和礦物感，使餘韻更悠長和集中。現在醒酒後喝來活潑，亦有條件陳放十多年。

Produced by extremely good quality winery Dominio do Bibei located in rarely reached outstainding terrior, elegant and subtle, a very partner with Chinese cuisine. 

Dominio do Bibei is located in the Quiroga-Bibei sub-zone of the Ribeira Sacra D.O. Like all Ribeira Sacra sub-zones, this area is one of spectacular mountain ranges and flowing rivers, but it is drier and harsher than the other sub-zones. Javier Domínguez is the author of this crazy adventure to recapture a once grand vineyard.

Planted on these terraces are old vines of Mencía, Garnacha, Brancellao and Mouratón. New plots are being planted using cuttings from these old vines so as to maintain clonal diversity in the vineyard. In addition to the red varietals, there are plantings of white grape varietals such as Doña Blanca, Godello and Albariño (the cuttings of this last grape being from Do Ferreiro). The sites vary greatly based on the orientation of the plots and the soil types. Because this is a transition zone which touches Valdeorras, soils of slate, granite and clay are interspersed among the hillsides.

Tasting Notes:
(Vinous rating: 92 points)
Brilliant ruby. High-pitched aromas of fresh red fruits, violet, smoky minerals and peppery spices, with a hint of blood orange in the background. Juicy, penetrating and concentrated, offering energetic black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors that put on weight with aeration. Shows excellent focus and persistence on the finish, which is firmed by fine-grained tannins and a jolt of dusty minerals. This vivacious wine is delicious now with some decanter time, but has the concentration and balance to age smoothly over the coming decade.

Music for Enjoyment:
