釀造工藝 Vinification:
創立於1982年，數十年間依然保持出色品質，透過悉心栽培自家果園，堅持傳統人手工藝，減少機械化灌溉，注重天然風味及細節，是該產區的指標性明星酒莊。這款“家族精選”西拉是旗艦酒款之一，只收割當年最優質的果實來作釀造，產量極少，長達24個月法國木桶蘊藏期帶來更優雅、具層次感的酒質。
Established in 1982, Zema Estate is a family winery deservedly takes great pride in their achievements and their original philosophies – Estate grown, hand pruned, minimally irrigated, hand crafted, attention to detail – consistently produced exceptional wines. The Family Selection wines represent the cream of the Zema crop. Outstanding parcels of fruit are selected, maturation in French oak barrels for 24 months, the resultant wine structure is both elegant and complex.
品酒筆記 Tasting Notes:
家族秘方經典名釀，收割最優質果實作限量釀造；以成熟紅色莓果口味主導味蕾，伴隨橡木烘烤氣息，結構飽滿完整，餘韻持久，擁有長期陳年潛力
The family secret, produced in extremely limited quantities; a complex combination of red ripe berries, toasty oak and firm tannins, good palate depth and length
其他評價 Other Reviews:
Fresh and svelte. Musky vanillin oak slips over redcurrant, plum and mint flavours. It turns tangy and firmish on the finish, with notes of crushed/dry tobacco evident, but you have to describe this wine as smooth.94 points
