Dear All,
只要說起德國白酒(更精確的應該說, 這世界上的白酒), J.J.Prum(一般稱為普綠園)絕對是愛酒人必備的收藏. 這個現在由法學博士Manfred Prum領導的莊園, 面積約有14公頃, 種植的葡萄100%都是Riesling. 其中最重要的一塊葡萄園就是五公頃大的[日晷]園(Sonnenuhr ). 土壤為藍灰色的板岩, 多數都是”原生”老藤(許多其他的莊園種植的是從美國嫁接來的葡萄樹), Manfred認為原生老藤所釀的酒比起嫁接的要來得更均衡與協調, 同時受到霜凍不易”落果”, 也不會因為綿綿的陰雨而腐爛, 因為這邊的土地本來就最適合”原生”葡萄樹. 而且Manfred採收的時間都比鄰園要至少晚上一兩週, 常常都要冒著隨時會下起大雨而讓葡萄受傷的風險, 但是, 也因為如此, 普綠園所釀造出來的酒, 都非常的耐久存!!
美國著名雜誌Wine Spectator就曾在1994年撰寫了一篇名為”Patience and Perfection”的文章來介紹普綠園是如何對於採收的時間錙銖必較, 和做出偉大的Riesling白酒是需要何等”鋼鐵般”的意志!! 以下節錄文章部份:
“To make great Riesling, you need nerves of steel. No one knows this better than Manfred Prüm, owner of the legendary German wine estate of Joh. Jos. Prüm in the Mosel River Valley. Long after most of the neighboring vineyards have given up their grapes, the 59-year-old winemaker still looks to the morning sky to see if it’s time to pick the famed Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard. Can he afford to wait another day to let the grapes ripen even more? Or is it time to tell his pickers to go into the vineyard before bad weather strikes?
Prüm has even let grapes hang in the rain, gambling that dry, sunny weather will return and yet higher levels of ripeness and concentration can be attained. When this happens he glows with satisfaction and spares no effort to select the most heavily botrytized grapes that are needed for Germany’s richest wines. Of course, he can also lose the gamble, and with it his grapes, to the rain and stormy weather. “Sometimes we have to accept losses,” he says philosophically, “but looked at statistically, we win more often than we lose.”
不過, 讚許與介紹得再多, 也得喝上一回, 才能讓人心領神會!!尤其在春日充滿陽光的午後, 無論在自家庭院或是外出踏青, 若能啜飲一口普綠園, 肯定讓人通體舒暢, 忘卻煩憂!!
