[Visiting] Portes Ouvertes (4) Chateau Les Ormes Sorbet


09. Avril. 2017

Portes Ouvertes 2017 : Château Les Ormes Sorbet
Cru Bourgeois
Medoc AOC


The third destination was "Chateau Les Ormes Sorbet". 
This chateau is also located in north part of Medoc. 
There was no castle, but the tasting room was tidy and refined.

세 번째 목적지는 샤토 레 오흠므 소흐베였다. (한글로 적기 정말.. 힘들다)
이 샤토도 메독지방의 북쪽에 있었다. 
성은 없었지만 테이스팅룸이 깔끔하고 세련되었다.


The owner family has taken care of this chateau for 10 generations. 
and "Sorbet" is not ice cream sorbet. 
It is the name of ancien proprietor. 

They have around 20 hectares of vineyard with gravel, sand and limestone.

샤토의 소유주 가족은 벌써 10세대 째 이 샤토를 관리하고 있다고 한다. 
그리고 "Sorbet"는 아이스크림 셔벗이 아니다. 
옛날 소유주의 이름이란다. 

포도밭은 20헥타르 정도이고 자갈, 모래, 석회질로 되어있단다.


There are 2 wines: Chateau Les Ormes Sorbet and 
Chateau de Conques



We tasted 3 different wines. 

1.  Chateau Les Ormes Sorbet 2014 
It was very young of course. 
It has a lot of red fruits flavours like strawberry, Raspberry and so on.
Little minty flavour was also there.

2. Chateau Les Ormes Sorbet 2011
This vintage was the best one for me. 
Peppery and sweet spicy flavours were strong, 
stony, humid and mineral note was impressive. 
Also it is close to red fruits. 
It seems like mocha.   

3. Chateau Les Ormes Sorbet 2008
The colour was garnet. 
It has more herbaceous and minty aromas.
On the tongue, it gave more mineral touch like wet stone. 
Also, spices like pepper. 
The acidity was like strawberry. 

★ The BEST 2011 !!! ★


There were 2 very old bottles. 
One of them was produced in 1800s. 

벽난로 위에 오래된 와인병이 있었다. 
그 중에 하나는 1800년대에 생산된 거라고.. 


What.. is it?

이거 뭘까 진짜 이상하다
