点评:I am a Master of Wine( similar to Master Sommlier). I live in Abruzzo and brought visiting relatives from the US to Tenuta Ulisse for a tasting. I had only tasted one of their wines, but thought it would be a good place to take my family. When I first arrived, I was disappointed, because I didn't make a professional reservation, but instead just a fun trip for cousins. They didn't want me to go into the cellar or production area where wine was aged, as I was accustomed to doing throughout my career. However, Antonella saw my disappointment and made every effort to make the vineyard available to us. We viewed some equipment and she made some adjustments so it was more informative for them.
Then we tasted 4 wines, of which she gave the 4th at no charge to us. They were even better than the wine I was familiar with, the "10 Vendemmia", which was a blend of 10 different vintages. The other wines we tasted were all red and made with excellent structure, making the wines both delicious now and ageworthy! While they were a bit "hot" with the Don Antonio having 15.5% alchol, the intense flavor that lingered in your mouth, the high acidity and firm tannins, made te alcohol less noticeable.
I purchased the Primitivo and the Don Antonio, and we all went away very happy!
翻译:我是一名葡萄酒大师(类似于侍酒大师)。我住在阿布鲁佐,这次带着从美国来的亲戚们前往乌利塞酒庄进行品酒。我之前只尝过他们的一款葡萄酒,但觉得这里是个带家人游玩的好去处。刚到酒庄时我有些失望,因为我没有提前以专业人士的身份预订,而只是安排了一次表亲们一起出游的活动。酒庄方面不允许我进入用来陈酿葡萄酒的酒窖或生产区。就像我职业生涯中一贯做的那样。不过,安东内拉察觉到了我的失望之情,于是竭尽全力让我们能够参观那片葡萄园。我们查看了一些设备,她还做了些调整,好让参观内容对我们有更大帮助。
随后我们品尝了4款葡萄酒,其中第4款是她免费提供给我们的。这些酒甚至比我熟悉的“10 Vendemmia”还要出色——那是一款由10个不同年份的葡萄酒调配而成的佳酿。我们品尝的其他葡萄酒都是红葡萄酒,且结构优良,不仅当下饮用口感绝佳,还非常适合陈年!虽然这些酒的酒精度略高——其中唐·安东尼奥这款的酒精度甚至达到了15.5%——但浓郁持久的香气、较高的酸度以及坚实的单宁使得酒精味反而不太明显了。
我买了普里米蒂沃和唐·安东尼奥这两款酒,我们所有人都心满意足地离开了!
