2018 Bornard Les Gaudrettes Troisieme Tirage

The 2018 "Les Gaudrettes Troisième Tirage" is a rather unique white wine from Tony Bornard, a well-regarded producer in the Jura region of France. This particular cuvée is a single-varietal Chardonnay, made from grapes grown on marl terroir and farmed biodynamically. The grapes are hand-picked, and the winemaking involves direct pressing before fermentation and ageing in barrels for three to four years, which explains the "Troisième Tirage" or "Third bottling" in its name. The wine is left unfiltered and unfined, with no added sulphites.

Aroma & Palate | A complex and fresh wine with a light texture. Expect notes of salted almonds, butter, fruit tree blossoms, apples, and lemon. The palate is juicy and mineral with a salty mouthfeel and a long, flavourful finish.
Region | Jura, France
Grapes | Chardonnay

這款 2018 年的「Les Gaudrettes Troisième Tirage」是來自法國汝拉（Jura）地區備受推崇的釀酒師 Tony Bornard 所釀造的獨特白酒。這款特別的酒款是單一品種的 Chardonnay，葡萄生長在泥灰岩風土上，並以生物動力法種植。葡萄經人手採摘並直接壓榨，在發酵後於橡木桶中陳釀三到四年，這也解釋了酒款名稱中的「Troisième Tirage」（第三次裝瓶）。此酒未經過濾和澄清，且不添加任何硫化物。

風味 | 一款複雜而清新的酒，質地輕盈。可預期帶有鹹杏仁、奶油、果樹花、蘋果和檸檬的風味。口感多汁且富含礦物味，帶有鹹味，餘韻悠長而充滿風味。
