敖雲 Ao Yun 2020
酩悦軒尼詩 Moët Hennessy 喺雲南北部、梅里雪山腳下嘅酒莊。葡萄園分佈喺湄公河（瀾滄江）兩岸四條村：西當、斯農、朔日、阿東，海拔 2,200 至 2,600 米，全部人手採摘、人手釀造。「敖雲」意思係遨遊雲上。
2020 係 Ao Yun 第八個年份：60% Cabernet Sauvignon、19% Cabernet Franc、10% Merlot、6% Syrah、5% Petit Verdot。陳釀 12 個月，30% 新法國橡木桶、30% 舊桶、40% 石陶罐。夏天比平時乾爽溫暖，採收由 9 月 21 日做到 11 月 12 日。比 2019 少啲濃郁，多啲清新同張力；JamesSuckling.com 形容佢係「至今最清新、最好嘅 Ao Yun」，仲話可以優雅陳年最少二十年。
From Moët Hennessy's estate at the foot of Meili mountain in northern Yunnan: four villages on both banks of the Mekong, 2,200–2,600 m above sea level, harvested and vinified by hand. "Ao Yun" means "flying above the clouds".
The 2020 is the eighth Ao Yun: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot, 6% Syrah and 5% Petit Verdot, aged 12 months in 30% new French oak, 30% older barrels and 40% stoneware jars. A warmer, drier summer, then a long harvest from 21 September to 12 November. Less opulent than 2019, fresher and more taut. JamesSuckling.com called it "the freshest and best expression of Ao Yun yet" and expects it to age gracefully for at least two decades.
Tasting notes: currants, graphite, cigar box, tobacco leaf and a touch of cocoa; bright, layered and silky, with fresh tannins and a very long finish.
