Henri Jayer 門生大家飲得多❓

但跟 Henri Jayer 一起共事的同事旗下酒莊又飲過未⁉️

講緊既係 Domaine Jean Tardy & Fils，Tardy家族曾定居在Flagey-Echezeaux，Victor Tardy 曾與酒神Henri Jayer共事一起在Domaine Meo-Camuzet工作。而Tardy家族因幫忙Camuzet打理葡萄園並分到一些土地共同種植。其後兒子 Jean Tardy接任，繼續幫 Meo Camuzet 打理享負盛名的 Premier Crus 和 Grand Cru田如Clos Vougeot等等。由於跟 Camuzet 家族那些共同種植的合約快到期，家族於是在80年代開始收購Chambolle Musigny、Nuits-St-Georges、Vosne Romanee、Gevrey Chambertin等葡萄園，其後建立自己的酒莊。1997年專研釀酒學的Guillaume Tardy回到酒莊幫手，並在2003年接手酒莊，與父親一起釀製葡萄酒，結合傳統知識與現代技術，酒莊佔地僅五公頃，大多為老藤。葡萄園管理在冬季修剪、春季去芽並實施綠色採收，確保葡萄更能集中精華。釀酒使用冷浸法與全去梗，釀造採用溫控大桶發酵，之後在木桶中陳釀15至16個月(村級35%、一級50%、特級75%的新桶)。Guillaume力求展現每塊風土的優雅與醇美。

值得一提被譽為釀造上帝之酒的神莊Domaine Sylvain Cathiard於2016年開始停止與各酒莊交換葡萄酒，但唯獨Domaine Jean Tardy & Fils保持交換。Sebastien Cathiard 曾說：「他沒有辦法抗拒 Jean Tardy 濃郁卻細緻的單寧結構，豐腴卻高雅的口感！除了他自己的酒以外，Jean Tardy 是他的第二最愛！」可見Sylvain Cathiard多麼認同Guillaume釀造的佳釀。

「 60-year-old vines whose roots go directly into the base rock. A deeper nose – wide at the base – the more modest higher tones are quite silky. Extra silky in the mouth, relatively linear to start too. I like the mineral drive here – not overly energetic but cool-fruited with melting flavour. Beautifully constructed and like the other wines in the cellar a very fine and growing floral accent to the finishing flavour too. Excellent! This, probably harder to pick blind than the last 3…」Burgundy Report 

Clive Coates MW 大讚 I like the style here: 「 Rich, balanced and pure, plump and intensely flavoured.」

「That he is best buddies with Sébastien Cathiard is perhaps not a coincidence when one assesses the style of Guillaume’s wines which have a flourish of textural fruit and fragrance which delights the palate and nose in equal measure」Neal Martin

Sébastien Cathiard 與 Guillaume Tardy 關系非淺，非常欣賞 Tardy 的酒！

“Gevrey earth and steely minerality atop beautifully ripened dark cherry fruit. What really stands out here is the serenity of the wine despite its latent power. The old-viney goodness shines through with an elegant and refined satiny finish. Only a village? Really hard to tell! Classy.”  

完全被懷疑唔止村酒咁少料！
