Vineyards: The grapes come from our estate vineyards in Villa Alegre, 285 km south of Santiago in the Maule Valley. The soils are derived from volcanic ash and consist of sandy to sandy-loam earth. The vineyards are flat and receive an excellent exposure to sunlight. The yields are carefully controlled so as to produce concentrated and elegant wines.

酒莊：此葡萄由位於智利的阿萊格雷鎮，一個距離聖地牙哥285公里莫莱谷的地方。此土地蘊含火山灰的養份，莊園地勢平坦促使陽光光線平均照料，而且經過小心嚴緊的管理以生產出專注優雅的佳釀。

Climate: The Villa Alegre region of Chile has a Mediterranean- style climate. Winter rains are plentiful and summers are dry with marked temperature variations between day and night, thereby allowing the grapes to obtain superb tannin development as well as excellent aromas and color concentration.

氣侯：阿萊格雷鎮位置於智利，擁有地中海的氣侯環境，冬季時雨水充足，而夏天則乾爽，日夜溫差合適葡萄生長，這樣的環境下能孕育出優質的葡萄，帶出單寧的發展，出色的香氣及顏色。

The Merlot grapes were harvested by hand at the end of March. The must is then fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts at temperatures ranging from 26º to 28ºC during a seven-day period. Prior to bottling, the wine is stabilized and filtered carefully to keep all the fruit.

我們所採用的梅洛葡萄均經人手在每年3月下旬採摘。在鋼桶發酵，以精選酵母配以26-28度進行7天發酵，每支酒在入樽前，均經嚴格小心保存以穩定及過濾成佳釀。

釀酒商小貼士：我們的梅洛有明亮的紅寶石顏色，帶成熟紅色水果，布冧和胡椒味道，悠長韻味。其單寧甜身而如絲絨般細滑。餘香悠長揮之不去。合適配襯烤牛、豬、意粉和新鮮的芝士。
