WEST品酒师三级及其以上可免费获赠2012年份故乡之路赤霞珠

11月14日，澳大利亚富邑集团旗下著名葡萄酒品牌奔富（Penfolds）在美丽的港口城市道格拉斯（Port Douglas）为2015年份Bin407举办题为“A Holiday Resort - Your Favorite 407”品鉴会。除了奔富的全球品牌大使杰米·萨克先生及一般性的消费者和酒商外，包括酿酒大师白瑞麒、麦格根在内的多位业内重量级人士也出席了该品鉴会。

从图片上我们可看出，2015年份Bin407已经采用防伪新型瓶：瓶子瓶颈部分有图案浮雕。除此之外，酒瓶底部有PENFOLDSWINE的大写英文字母浮雕；而在瓶颈部分则继续采用防伪标签。

2015年份的Bin407采用来自库纳瓦拉、麦克拉伦谷、巴罗莎谷、拉顿布里及柏特威等地的赤霞珠，是名副其实的南澳混酿。这款酒精度为14.5%的全新Bin407拥有充满活力的香气，清新的浆果气息明显，橡木桶的味道没有过于突出。入口酒体中等，充满复杂的香气。回味有些单宁感，但是整体来说还是非常柔顺。这款407比以往的年份更柔和，瓶中熟成一段时间后应该表现会更好。

作为近年来在国内认可度极高的进口葡萄酒单品，Bin407的大热可以说是现象级的。前奔富酿酒大师白瑞麒表示，如果仅从品质来讲，故乡之路（Country Road）2012年份的赤霞珠完全可以与2015年份Bin407媲美

现在，为了让更多的人了解2012年份故乡之路（Country Road）赤霞珠，WEST品酒师三级及其以上者，通过指定微信号报名并上传WEST证书，就可免费获赠一瓶，限量300瓶，先到先得啦！

附：白瑞麒酒评

The 2015 Bin 407 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon from Coonawarra, McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley , Wrattonbully and Padthaway. A true South Australian blend . The wine is 14.5% alcohol.

Same as all Premium red wines bottled under the ‘Country Road’ label , must reach a minimum of 14 %v/v alcohol to ensure flavour and colour development and longevity in bottle maturation .

To be honest I found the wine a little disappointing - it is not of the high standard set by previous vintages . There is no prominent lifted Cabernet bouquet , no black currant characters . The oak characters are light and in the background . The palate flavour does not have enough palate weight . Being critical I can see that this wine has been ‘rushed’ to the market due to strong demand. It is not worth the price. Brian McGuigan and Jay Tulloch who tasted the wine with me agreed with my comments. Penfolds is going ng through a huge international growth in red wine sales - it is now a public company and needs to continually make a profit and pay shareholders a dividend - I am worried the wine quality focus could be compromised ? The 2012 CR Cabernet would compare favourably to the 15 Bin 407. Remember there is a large price difference!
