新西兰先驱报中文网 Lesley 编译 11月25日晚，在霍克斯湾Pettigrew Green Arena举行的2017年新西兰航空葡萄酒大赛（Air NZ Wine Awards）颁奖晚宴上，产自马尔堡的一款霞多丽葡萄酒击败了1300多个参赛的葡萄酒品牌，荣获最高奖。

这款2016年马尔堡伊莎贝尔霞多丽（Isabel Chardonnay Marlborough 2016）不仅荣获了新西兰航空葡萄酒冠军奖（Air NZ Champion Wine of the Show），还赢得了荷兰合作银行霞多丽冠军奖（Rabobank Champion Chardonnay）。

评委团主席Warren Gibson表示，在今年的比赛中，2016年马尔堡伊莎贝尔霞多丽是一款非常经典的霞多丽白葡萄酒，“各种成分平衡得很好，口感回味悠长。”

这款冠军酒的生产商——伊莎贝尔庄园（Isabel Estate Vineyard）是马尔堡各酒庄中的先驱。该酒庄在1980年便开始种植其第一个葡萄园，拥有当地最古老的霞多丽葡萄藤。

伊莎贝尔庄园首席酿酒师Jeremy McKenzie讲述称，庄园的经营理念很简单，“尊重葡萄生长的每一片土地，让每个葡萄园都拥有它自己的特点，让最终酿制而成的葡萄酒都能体现庄园的品种多样性。”
