2021 年圣杯西拉

颜色 |颜色呈深黑色，带有樱桃红色调。

香气 |接骨木、无花果、焦油、熟食、德国香肠、小豆蔻、咖喱香料、玫瑰和蓝莓的复杂香气。

口感 |这款酒从一开始就显得强劲有力，散发着浓郁丰腴的黑色水果香气，活力四射，气势磅礴。如同圣杯酒庄所有顶级年份酒一样，它拥有非凡的柔顺过渡能力，口感柔和细腻，回味悠长。单宁细腻，带有石质质感，口感顺滑悠长，回味悠长，在口中回荡，带来非凡的回味，并逐渐淡化至后味。随着酒体逐渐成熟，肉干、甘草和樱桃成熟等香气交织在一起，更加提升了酒体的复杂性。这款酒非常适合陈年，虽然现在已展现出其绝佳的风味，但8到10年后，等待终将物超所值，耐心至关重要。

The 2023 vintage was one of the coolest, wettest and latest in Two Hands’ history. A wet winter and cold spring slowed early vine growth considerably, pushing the season several weeks behind normal before warmer conditions arrived in early summer. With a cooler ripening period ahead, yields were carefully managed and vineyard work focused on achieving healthy, open canopies and optimal fruit maturity. Harvest began in late March and continued through to 2 May, our latest finish on record. Careful picking decisions and patient winemaking proved crucial, resulting in wines of impressive quality and consistency, with excellent balance, freshness and a distinctive expression of this long, cool growing season.

酿酒 |4月5日，我们从圣杯葡萄园采摘了几小块葡萄。运抵我们的马拉南加酒庄后，它们被去梗，放入5吨不锈钢敞口发酵罐中。每天轻柔地抽吸2-3次，这些葡萄平均带皮发酵10天后进行压榨。所有自由流出的葡萄和压榨的葡萄汁在罐中混合，然后倒入橡木桶中进行苹果酸发酵。葡萄酒装瓶时仅进行最低限度的澄清，无需过滤。

成熟 |在高达 50% 的新法国橡木桶和 2/3 年旧大桶中陈酿 18 个月。生产了 5 桶，并于下一年份的 11 月装瓶。

"The 2023 Holy Grail Seppeltsfield Road Seppeltsfield Shiraz is charry and black on the palate, with savory tannins and black fruit. The tannins feel almost ashy in their texture, and the fruit exists squarely at the blackberry/blueberry/mulberry end of the spectrum. This is an interesting iteration of this wine. The 2023 season was cool and wet, so perhaps it is the character of the cooper that is perceived here, given that the fruit feels a little more delicate than usual across the board."
