On a January day in Napa Valley, Philippe Melka is sharing his thoughts on Adamvs’s 2018 barrel samples of Cabernet Sauvignon grown on Howell Mountain. He can tell you anything about the wine, from the microclimate of a particular block of vines in the vineyard to how he discovered a native yeast on the property.

2020年在納帕谷的1月1日，菲利普·梅爾卡（Philippe Melka）分享了他對Adamvs於Howell山上種植的赤霞珠2018年桶裝樣品的想法。他可以告訴您有關葡萄酒的任何信息，從葡萄園中特定葡萄藤的微氣候到他如何在酒莊中發現原生酵母的任何事物。


At first, this may seem like something you’d expect from a winemaker in one of the world’s most sought-after wine regions, but it’s actually quite extraordinary. Melka does this for about 30 different wineries in the valley as part of his company, Atelier Melka. It’s like he has a massive spreadsheet in his head. How he keeps it all straight is something he can’t put into words.

最初，這似乎是您在世界上最搶手的葡萄酒產區之一的釀酒師所期望的，但實際上卻非同尋常。作為他的工作室Atelier Melka的一部分，Melka為此在山谷中的大約30個釀酒廠進行了此項工作。就像他腦海中有一個龐大的電子表格。他如何保持直率是他「無法言語」的。
