Background Info:
小企鵝的葡萄酒似乎有著主打年輕人市場的取向, 在它的官方網站裡可以看到許許多多的 party 照片貼在網頁的 photo gallery 裡, 或許這是我所看過最多年輕人熱情品嚐葡萄酒的酒莊網頁, 看來葡萄酒也可以像啤酒一般地在年輕人的聚會裡普遍地被飲用…

Official Comment:
"Turn your burrow lights down low and pop a bottle of this big juicy red with 60 or 70 of your closest friends. Penguin heaven." - the Little Penguin

WS Comment:
"Lithe and light on its feet, with ripe currant and cherry fruit, polished texture and easy-drinking style. Drink now. 115,000 cases imported."

Other Comment:
The biggest Little Penguin wine has an awesome ruby red color and the scent of fresh berries. The palate jumps with sweet Australian Cabernet fruit and soft background tannins and a great taste that lingers. An age–worthy Cabernet that drinks beautifully now. Ideal with grilled meats, poultry, hard cheeses and pasta.

Personal Comment:
Sight: Dark red with loose tears.
Nose: Fruity and black berry aromas.
Taste: Medium dry and litchi flavor. It is kind of soft (smooth) at the end without enough tannins and lingering. Easy to drink. I prefer it as a table wine but slightly higher price for the table wine.
這是一款年輕易飲的卡本內. 蘇維濃, 整體而言, 非常地平順好喝, 說不上有與眾不同的特色, 但也沒有太大的瑕疵, 做為餐桌酒再適合也不過了.
