Savoie | Domaine Jean-François Quénard

就如小女子先前所說,個人認為香港的葡萄酒飲家不但不停探索著名酒區的小型精釀,而且隨著葡萄酒知識的增加,亦開始探索不同冷門國家和偏門產區的葡萄酒風格。


As mentioned, I think that Hong Kong wine lovers not only keep searching boutique wines from famous wine regions, but also discovering wines from less popular wine producing country and regions, due to the enrichment of wine knowledge.

(Anne-Sophie Quenard)


這次就想分享於法國Savoie區中遇到的一個酒莊 - Domaine Jean-François Quénard。他們的酒風果感清爽、簡單直接而平衡,個別酒款帶有層次,是日常飲用酒款中一個不錯的選擇。品評過後,小女子認為他們的紅酒有點果香太盛,個別酒款表現年輕,需要多兩、三年陳釀,還是比較偏好他們的白酒。


Today, I would like to share a winery I visited in Savoie of France, Domaine Jean-François. In my opinion, their wine style is fresh, fruity, straightforward and balanced, and some of the wines have complexity. For some of the red wines, they are too young to drink now and need 2 to 3 more years for ageing.


順帶一提,該酒莊現擁有17公頃葡萄園,他們的白、紅酒分別於2020及2021年正式獲取有機認證。


Just to mention, this winery owns 17 ha of vineyard now. Their white and red wine are certified organic in 2020 and 2021 respectively.
