Promontory 2018

Just after fermentation, the 2018 vintage of Promontory already reflected the gentle, extended growing season, showing uncommonly detailed tannins. During its many months in the cellar, the wine has retained its effusive brightness and fresh acidity while continuing to acquire elevated nuance and bringing forward its many facets. Blue-fruit aromas, as well as pleasantly resinous qualities, accompany a fresh, cool note that rises to greet the nose. The wine’s lifted and profound dimension emanate outward from a center of almost ethereal form. Although the fine-grained tannins introduce an element of restraint to this translucent radiancy, the intrinsic nobility of this wine persists at each stage of its measured procession across the palate to the finish. ------ Promontory Wine 官網

【Promontory酒莊】
位於那帕谷的 Promontory 酒莊來自加州最著名的膜拜酒莊哈蘭（Harlan Estate）莊主父子 Bill 以及 Will Harlan 的最新力作。

20 世紀 80 年代初，H. William Harlan 在沿著奧克維爾西南山脊徒步旅行時發現了一個偏僻的地區。這片廣闊土地隱藏古老而未開化深深地感動了他，但一直難以捉摸，直到2008 年哈蘭家族最終佔領了它。隨著第二代人在這片土地上探索和耕作，他們開始有了自己的發現。在這片野生地形的核心，他們發現了強大的地質聚合，形成了陡峭崎嶇的地形，並為完全異國情調的葡萄種植環境創造了條件。隨著時間的推移，他們發現，超越已知邊緣的戲劇性景觀將慢慢改變他們，並最終激發新的努力：Promontory酒莊
