桶邊試飲。這款酒呈中等麥稈色。緊致的酒體與潮濕稻草的氣息使人聯(lián)想到成熟的白詩南葡萄酒。具有優(yōu)秀的平衡度和成熟度。我對(duì)這款酒非常感興趣。其口感如絲綢般順滑，有清新水果和些許燈籠果香氣。余味悠長有活力。

Offering up a pretty, lively bouquet of white flowers, mint, lemon curd and honeycomb, the 2011 Saint Peray Version Longue is a delicious, medium to full-bodied effort that offers up juicy acidity and a great finish. Borderline outstanding, it’s well worth seeking out and should dish out plenty of pleasure over the coming couple of years. Made by Francois Villard, with varying degrees of whole cluster fermentation, these wines shows the racier, focused and peppery side to Syrah. Bright acids, notable tannin and pure, clean flavors are the norm here. Given the high level of stem usage, the vast majority of these will benefit from short term cellaring.
