For the last 15 years, oenologist Xavier Vignon has become internationally known for being the winemaker of several of the best domaines in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and around.

His ideal wine is, easy to understand, modern, powerful and a great value for money. 100% Xavier was born.

夏維雅酒莊

十五年來，釀酒師夏維雅．威儂釀制教皇新堡及其周邊地區，以美酒在國際酒壇上嶄露頭角。在2002年建立了自己品牌，用他精選各條村的極品葡陶，拼配出隆尼谷河各區的美酒。他的理念是易懂，現代風格強而有力，性價比高，繼而誕生了100%的標籤。

夏維雅．威儂是一位「飛天釀酒師」，亦即是受聘全世界南北半球各個莊園的顧問釀酒師。隆尼河谷種植生產局就由他擔當顧問，包括馬可酒莊(98分)、娜納芙(95分)、莫多利(98分)以及維尼。夏維雅．威儂希望可以保持他主要工作，繼續管理他的研究所，所以於2007年他聯同兩位拍檔，去發展他的「夏維雅酒」。

Tasting Note 鑒賞:

All panoply of a big Châteauneuf-du-Pape: red and black fruits, spices, garrigue. Grapes were harvested perfectly ripe. Result is flawless, with a nice saltiness brought up from the deep soil by the long grenaches roots. The elegance of its tannins does not impose a long ageing for this Châteauneuf, but it may be kept for a long time in a good cellar. Its opaque purple color is followed by a wine of extraordinary intensity. Copious notes of liquorice, garrigue, underbrush, blackberries, black currants and graphite are present in this full bodied, modern styled, fragrant, distinctive Chateauneuf. This terrific voluptuous 2009 should drink well young and last for 15-20 years. ~ Robert Parker

偉大的教皇新堡所產的華麗美酒：有著紅果、黑果、香料和矮灌木叢的香氣。葡萄在最佳成熟時期收穫。釀出的美酒完美無瑕，有著深根系格納殊葡萄從土壤深處帶來的鹹味。此款教皇新堡優雅的單寧不會因為長時間的陳瓶而受到影響，但是佳釀必須要在好的窖藏條件下才能存放較長時間。 “此佳釀不透明的紫色代表了佳釀非凡的濃郁，豐富的香氣中歐亞甘草、矮灌木叢，矮樹叢，黑莓，黑醋栗和石墨的味道藏在此款有著豐滿的酒體、現代的風格、令人愉悅，與眾不同的教皇新堡佳釀中。此款極其誘人的2009年佳釀在嫩齡時品鑒口感上佳，15-20年後，口感依舊美好。”
