愛藤如命的發燒友
每人的喜好不一樣，一但到了癡迷階段，就會更精益求精，事情做到極致，成為了達人、匠人。廣東話中“發燒友”更多了一層狂熱的喜愛在裏面。
班威夫家族在法國阿尔撒斯是其中一個堅持人手全熟採摘葡萄，及比有機種植更天然的耕種方式--自然耕種法（生物動力）來種植葡萄。
種植的瓊瑤漿Gewurztraminer稱為“最接近紅葡萄”的白葡萄品種，它表皮粉紅，果實顆粒比大部分白葡萄品種小一些。越遲採摘它的酸度就越低，沒有酸度酒的演进就会没有起伏，很闷很甜，但喝過一杯就不想再喝了。班威夫分開兩次採收，第一次採收取葡萄天然的酸味，第二次採收待葡萄完全成熟，取其細膩的甜味，平衡達到酸和甜中的極致。
班威夫家有多发烧？他们连行走庄园的一切车辆都亲手改装，为的是怕车辆弄伤葡萄呢！
罗兰班威夫瓊瑤漿2013 --就是這樣一款由發燒友精心釀出來的酒。
酒馥芳香帶有荔枝香氣，還有包括了玫瑰、百香果、桃子、杏子、菠蘿、油柑子等甜美的花果香氣。甜美之餘，聞似蜂蜜，甜中帶微酸，轻微的带气泡，入口爽而不膩，最適合配四川麻辣、泰國菜、咖喱這類風味濃厚的食物。净饮也畅快。
我想这佳酿会是悠长夏日的良伴。
Wine Fever
Everyone has his likes. When one is fascinated, he will have a passion for excellence and becomes an expert or even a guru. Cantonese calls this passion “feverish”.
Bannwarth family from Alsace insists on hand harvest when grape reaches it optimum ripeness and registered biodynamic viticulture.
One of their labels is Gewurztraminer Nature, a white grape which is regarded as the closest to red grape. When it is ripe, it is indeed pinkish. When it is made sweet, late harvest is practiced meaning acidity will be lowered. Evolution of wine will be a bit boring and too sweet for a second glass. Bannwarth blended it with some green harvest grape to balance the taste and refine the structure.
How feverish are the Bannwarths? They modify by hand all their vehicles to make sure that they will not hurt their vine and soils.
Gewurztraminer Nature is made by this “feverish “producer.
It consists aromas of rose, lychee, passion fruit, Indian gooseberry, peach, apricot and pineapple. On the nose, it smells honey, sweet with clever acidity. The slight fizziness further enhances the crispiness. It pairs well with Sichuan, Thai and curry cuisines, and also good on its own.
This is a very lovely summer wine.
