Young and layered on the nose — blackcurrant, black cherry and black plum give way to cedar, graphite, pencil shavings, licorice, cocoa, tobacco and Asian spice, opening with air to violet, mint and a whisper of coastal minerality. The palate leads with precision rather than power: pure, concentrated black fruit, taut lively acidity, and fine velvety tannin. Long finish of black fruit, graphite, cedar and mineral. A Chinese fine wine built on structure, balance and ageing potential — not an imitation of Bordeaux, but Lafite's winemaking philosophy expressed through Penglai's coastal terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHand-torn chicken and duck leg, slow-braised duck — the wine's ripe, fine tannin and structure match the dish's richer, more concentrated flavors as an equal partner rather than a supporting act.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Long Dai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57112567480486,"sku":null,"price":3780.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/5116\/3046\/files\/LD-RD-01_LongDai_std_white_bg_1.png?v=1787669796","url":"https:\/\/highcru.com\/products\/domaine-de-long-dai-%e7%93%8f%e5%b2%b1","provider":"High Cru","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
