DWWA has a track record of shining a spotlight on exciting, under-the-radar wines all over the wine world, too – and 2021 proved no exception.
DWWA 也一直關注著葡萄酒世界中令人興奮、鮮為人知的葡萄酒——事實證明,2021 年也不例外。
DWWA 2021: A year of firsts
DWWA 2021:首創之年
DWWA 2021 included a first Best in Show medal for a ‘Vin Jaune’ – or ‘yellow wine’ – a speciality of the Jura region of eastern France. The winning wine was Domaine Berthet-Bondet, Château-Chalon 2013, made from 100% Savagnin.
DWWA 2021 包括法國東部侏羅地區特產“Vin Jaune”或“黃酒”的首個最佳展示獎。獲獎葡萄酒是 2013 年 Château-Chalon 酒莊 Berthet-Bondet,由 100% Savagnin 釀製。
DWWA 2021 judges included in their tasting notes, “If you’ve never tried Vin Jaune, you couldn’t do better than begin with this 2013.
DWWA 2021 評委在他們的品酒筆記中寫道:“如果您從未嘗試過 Vin Jaune,那麼從 2013 年開始,您將做得更好。
“Pale but emphatically gold, it has aromas which evoke nuts, wild mushrooms, umami, yeast and cream, but in which some lingering sweetness of fruit survives, too (Savagnin for Vin Jaune is picked very ripe).”
“淡而強烈的金色,它的香氣讓人聯想到堅果、野生蘑菇、鮮味、酵母和奶油,但也有一些揮之不去的水果甜味(用於 Vin Jaune 的 Savagnin 採摘得非常成熟)。”
There was also success in Switzerland for the Savagnin grape variety, not to be confused with the similarly named Sauvignon Blanc.
Savagnin 葡萄品種在瑞士也取得了成功,不要與同名的長相思混淆。
Wine cooperative St. Jodern Kellerei in the Valais region already farms some of Europe’s highest vineyards, and it reached the summit of DWWA in 2021 after its ‘Heida Barrique’ 2019 won a Best in Show medal.
瓦萊州地區的葡萄酒合作社 St. Jodern Kellerei 已經種植了一些歐洲最高的葡萄園,並在其 2019 年的“Heida Barrique”獲得最佳展示獎後於 2021 年登上了 DWWA 的頂峰。
Judges said in their notes on the wine, “Heida is the name used in the high Valais (or Wallis) for Savagnin, and our judges were very impressed by the range and expressive uniqueness of Swiss Savagnin this year.”
評委在酒評中說:“Heida 是高瓦萊州(或瓦利斯)用於 Savagnin 的名稱,我們的評委對今年瑞士 Savagnin 的範圍和表現力的獨特性印象深刻。”
They added, “This is a refreshingly aromatic yet full-flavoured wine, striking and singular: a horn sounding in the clear Alpine air.”
他們補充說:“這是一款清新芳香但味道濃郁的葡萄酒,引人注目且獨特:在清澈的阿爾卑斯山空氣中吹響號角。”
DWWA 2021 also saw a first Best in Show medal for France’s Savoie region, awarded to a 100%
Roussanne white wine from Domaine Charles Gonnet for the 2020 vintage.
來自Domaine Charles Gonnet 的2020 年份Roussanne 白葡萄酒。
Friuli in north-east Italy made its debut in the DWWA Best in Show winners’ list, thanks to Muzic winery’s Stare Brajde ‘Collio’ 2019 white wine.
得益於 Muzic 酒莊的 Stare Brajde ‘Collio’ 2019 白葡萄酒,意大利東北部的弗留利首次出現在 DWWA 最佳展示獎獲獎名單中。
There were also two Golds for Ukraine, the first time the country has struck Gold at DWWA.
烏克蘭也獲得了兩枚金牌,這是該國首次在 DWWA 上獲得金牌。
Sarah Jane Evans, Co-Chair at DWWA 2021, said of the results, “You know that this is something that's been through a really rigorous judging process. We're not playing at judging here. This is blind tasting.
DWWA 2021 聯合主席莎拉·簡·埃文斯 (Sarah Jane Evans) 談到結果時說:“你知道,這是經過非常嚴格的評審過程的事情。我們不是在這裡評判。這是盲品。
We have absolutely no idea what the wines are and we're tasting them not only in panels together where we have to each discuss and think about them deeply, but then they go up to Regional Chairs who are experts in those countries.”
我們完全不知道這些葡萄酒是什麼,我們不僅要一起在小組中品嚐它們,我們每個人都必須深入討論和思考它們,然後他們還會上到這些國家的專家區域主席那裡。”
She added, “It's a very, very rigorous process, but it highlights fabulous wines at the end of it.”
她補充說:“這是一個非常非常嚴格的過程,但它在最後突出了美妙的葡萄酒。”
Andrew Jefford, also a DWWA Co-Chair, said, “DWWA is the world's leading wine competition. I'm absolutely thrilled to take part in it every year because having tasted in a number of other competitions I know how well it's organised, how carefully everything is done. So if you get a medal from DWWA it really is worth having and everybody respects it internationally. We get entries from every corner of the wine world, so it is as it were the closest you can get to a universal benchmark.”
DWWA 聯合主席 Andrew Jefford 說:“DWWA 是世界領先的葡萄酒競賽。我非常高興每年都參加它,因為在參加過許多其他比賽后,我知道它組織得多麼好,一切都做得多麼仔細。因此,如果您從 DWWA 獲得獎牌,那確實值得擁有,而且每個人都在國際上尊重它。我們收到來自葡萄酒世界各個角落的參賽作品,因此它是您可以獲得的最接近通用基準的作品。”

知名產區的經典款式在 DWWA 2021 上也表現異常出色,證明了它們為何在葡萄酒愛好者中享有如此吹噓的聲譽。

Excitement surrounding the Barolo 2016 vintage in Italy’s Piedmont region was given a further boost after Diego Morra’s ‘Monvigliero’ 2016 was awarded a Best in Show medal.
在迭戈·莫拉 (Diego Morra) 的 2016 年“蒙維列羅”(Monvigliero) 獲得最佳表演獎之後,圍繞意大利皮埃蒙特地區的巴羅洛 (Barolo) 2016 年份的興奮度進一步提升。
In total, Italy won seven Best in Show medals, also including Prosecco and Brunello di Montalcino DOCG wines, as well as a Timorasso dry white from Piedmont and a Vin Santo di Carmignano sweet wine from Tuscany.

Some Best in Show awards went to lesser-known styles from top producer nations. New Zealand is renowned for Sauvignon Blanc but it was Tohu’s ‘Whenua Matua’ Chardonnay 2018 that won a Best in Show medal at DWWA 2021. Chile’s La Causa, Cinsault-País-Carignan 2019 from Itata Valley also received this top accolade.
一些最佳展示獎頒給了來自頂級製作國的鮮為人知的款式。 新西蘭以長相思而聞名,但 Tohu 的“Whenua Matua”霞多麗 2018 年在 DWWA 2021 上獲得了最佳展示獎。智利的 La Causa、Itata Valley 的 Cinsault-País-Carignan 2019 也獲得了這一最高榮譽。
Elsewhere, Greece narrowly beat its strong performance at last year’s competition. A Greek Assyrtiko white wine won a Best in Show medal, and the country received six Platinum and 16 Gold medals at DWWA 2021 overall.
在其他地方,希臘在去年的比賽中以微弱優勢擊敗其強勁表現。 一款希臘 Assyrtiko 白葡萄酒獲得了最佳展示獎,該國在 2021 年 DWWA 上獲得了 6 枚白金獎和 16 枚金牌。

[French pastries / 法式甜點] #咕咕霍夫 / #Kouglof (for English, click “see more”.)
決定去 Colmar 之後,除了訂下拜訪 Christine Ferber 的甜點店、在老城區漫遊,感受小鎮魅力外,想到能夠在當地品嚐到亞爾薩斯特色甜點 —— Kouglof(咕咕霍夫),也讓我興奮不已。
Kouglof 是一款重奶油麵包,由布里歐許麵糰(pâte à brioche)加上用蘭姆酒或櫻桃白蘭地浸漬的葡萄乾製成、還會加上杏仁片。外型有旋轉條紋、內裡中空就是它的特色。在亞爾薩斯,kouglof 是在陶製的模具中烘烤而成。顏色鮮豔、造型可愛、有時外面還有各種裝飾紋樣的模具非常引人注目,是許多人去亞爾薩斯會選購的紀念品。
關於 kouglof 的起源有很多傳說,有一說是由瑪麗安東尼皇后從奧地利帶入法國,更知名的則是東方三賢士在前往伯利恆為耶穌祝壽的途中經過亞爾薩斯的小鎮 Ribeauvillé,為了回報為他們提供落腳處的當地糕點師 Kugel(一說是陶匠),而製作了這個甜點,形狀和賢者們的頭巾相同。而那位愛好美食的前波蘭國王 Stanisław Leszczyński 在法國洛林地區落腳後,發現當地的 kouglof 太乾,而命人將浸在 Malaga 酒中,最後發明了 baba(巴巴)。不論傳說何者為真,kouglof 早在 18 世紀便已經出現在亞爾薩斯,而且深受當地人喜愛。
由於起緣於德法邊境的亞爾薩斯,kouglof 有很多種拼寫法,其中一個德文的拼法是「kugelhopf」,kugel 在德文中是「球」之意,而「hopf」是啤酒花「hop」之意(也有一說其實是「hefe」酵母),而過去製作 kouglof 時,是以啤酒酵母將麵糰發酵。
我在 Colmar 時發現當地還有另外一種加了果乾與香料(多半是肉桂)的布里歐許麵包,稱為「langhopf」,是使用長型的麵包模製作。在 Colmar 當地看到的 langhopf 做法多半是烤好之後在外面裹上一層肉桂糖粉,看起來非常特別。可惜因為一個人實在吃不下那麼多麵包,只好留著下次再去品嚐了。

If you ask what have I tasted during my trip to Colmar, how could I miss kouglof, one of the most renowned and beloved Alsatian specialties?
Made of the brioche dough with raisins soaked in rum or kirch as well as almond flakes, kouglof is a pastry in between cakes and bread. The high, creased, toroidal pottery kouglof mould, often brightly-coloured and sometimes painted with beautiful motifs, is also a popular souvenir among tourists.
Lots of legends and stories are associated with the origin of kouglof. Some say that the Austrian queen Marie-Antoinette brought it to France while some of the narratives claim that when the Three Magi were on their way to Bethlehem, they made the cake to thank a local pâtissier (or a pottery maker) named Kugel for his hospitality, and the shape of the cake comes from the turban of the Magi. Stanisław Leszczyński, the gourmet Polish king also takes part in transforming this Alsatian delicacy into a great classic of French pastry. When he settled in Lorraine, he found that the local kouglofs were too dried that he asked his pastry chefs to soak the cake into Malaga wine to make it more pleasant to enjoy, and that is how baba is born. No matter what, kouglof has appeared in Alsace before 19th century and is very popular in the region of Alsace.
Many varieties exist with regard to the spelling of kouglof; one of which is "kugelhopf". Kugel means "ball" in german while "hopf" means "hop", indicating where the yeast used to rise the cake in from. Others claim that it could mean "hefe", yeast in German.
When I was in Colmar, I found "langhopf", another local variety of brioche made with dried fruits as well as spices, mostly cinnamon. It is baked in a creased rectangular pan and then coated with cinnamon and sugar. As I have only one stomach, I'll have to save it to my next visit.

★★★★★★★★★★★★
The First World War began in Europe and then spread to other regions from July 28, 1914 to November 11, 1918. On August 3, 1914, the United Kingdom declared war on Germany due to its invasion of Belgium. During the war, both sides engaged in trench warfare and attempted to encircle the other side. Soon, from the North Sea to the Swiss border, the two sides extended their trench lines, resulting in a stalemate on both sides.
第一次世界大戰是指從1914年7月28日到1918年11月11日,始於歐洲進而波及至其他地區的大戰。1914年8月3日,英國因為德國入侵比利時而對其宣戰,作戰期間雙方軍隊都試圖以包圍對方側翼的戰略來進行殲滅,很快地,從北海到瑞士邊境的土地上,雙方各自延伸其戰壕系統,陷入苦戰。
4. invasion of... ...的侵略
5. result in a stalemate 導致陷入僵局
6. trench warfare 塹壕戰
★★★★★★★★★★★★
At the end of 1914, the first Christmas of the war, a "Christmas Open Letter" signed by 101 British women activists and sent to "German and Austrian women" called for peace. On December 7, 1914, Pope Benedict XV also called on the governments of the warring countries to consider a formal truce agreement. However, they sternly rejected these calls for peace.
1914年末,大戰期間的第一個聖誕節到來,一封由101位英國婦女參政運動者署名並寄給「德國與奧地利婦女」的「聖誕節公開信」呼籲和平,教宗本篤十五世亦在1914年12月7日,向正在交戰中的各國政府呼籲簽訂正式的休戰協定。然而,各國官方嚴正回絕這些對和平的呼喚與渴望。
7. an open letter 一封公開信
8. call for peace 呼籲和平
9. a truce agreement 停戰協議
10. warring countries 交戰的國家
11. sternly reject 嚴厲拒絕
★★★★★★★★★★★★
While there was no formal truce on both sides, about 100,000 Germans and British troops spontaneously ceased fire along the Western Front. The first truce began on Christmas Eve on December 24, 1914, when the Germans began to decorate their trenches in the Ypres region of Belgium.
儘管雙方沒有正式的休戰,仍然有大約10萬名的德軍和英軍自發性地沿著西線陸續中止了戰事。第一個休戰案例始於1914年12月24日的平安夜,當時德軍在比利時伊佩爾地區開始裝飾起他們的戰壕周遭。
12. formal truce 正式休戰
13. spontaneously ceased fire 自發地停火
★★★★★★★★★★★★
These German soldiers first adorned their trenches with candles and Christmas trees and then sang Christmas carols. British soldiers followed with carols of their own, and both sides began shouting Christmas greetings. Soon, the soldiers began to communicate in no-man's land, and exchanged small gifts such as food, cigarettes, and wine, as well as buttons and hats as souvenirs. On that night, both sides enjoyed a long-lost peace. During the truce, the two sides also brought back the bodies of their fallen comrades from the front lines and buried them. In addition, the pastors of the two sides jointly held a joint service.
這些德國士兵先是在他們的戰壕與聖誕樹上擺上了蠟燭,並唱起聖誕頌歌來慶祝;英國士兵則以英文聖誕頌歌做為回禮,接著兩邊開始互相對彼此喊出聖誕節祝福。很快地,雙方開始在無人地帶交流,士兵們互相交換起食物、香菸和酒等小禮物,還有像是鈕扣與帽子等作為紀念品。在那一夜,戰區享受了久違的平和。而這次休戰期間,雙方也各自將陣亡的同袍帶回戰線後方集體埋葬。此外,雙方的牧師更共同舉行了聯合禮拜。
14. exchange gifts 交換禮物
15. long-lost peace 久違的和平
16. fallen comrades 陣亡同袍
17. front lines 前線
18. hold a joint service 舉行聯合禮拜儀式
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Sir Heras Smith-Dorren, the commander of the British Second Army, was furious upon learning about these unofficial truces. An order strictly forbidding any communication between the British and enemy soldiers was issued. In the next few years of the war, the artillery shellers were explicitly ordered to ensure that the fighting would not be interrupted again on Christmas Eve. The soldiers were reassigned to different fronts so that they would not fraternize with the enemy. Despite such orders, there was still deliberate suppression of fighting on various fronts. Soldiers, for example, would fire artillery at a fixed time to minimize casualties.
英國第二軍團指揮官赫拉斯·史密斯-多倫爵士在得知這些非官方的休戰行為後相當生氣,發布命令嚴格禁止英軍與敵方士兵有任何交流。大戰接下來的幾年內,砲隊砲擊手受命在平安夜仍要確保戰鬥不會再次中斷。軍隊也被輪流調防到前線各地的不同防區,以免他們與敵人過於熟悉。儘管上層如此命令,但各地還是有故意抑制戰鬥的狀況,像是雙方火砲在固定的時間打到固定的地點上,以免對方發生傷亡。
19. upon learning... 一得知...
20. strictly forbid 嚴禁
21. issue an order 發出命令
22. explicitly order to 明確地命令
23. fraternize with the enemy 與敵人友好相處
24. deliberate suppression of... 故意鎮壓...
25. fire artillery 發射火砲
26. minimize casualty 減少傷亡
★★★★★★★★★★★★
On the Christmas Eve of 1915, a football from the German front became a symbol of peace. Bertie Felstead, a private of the Royal Welch Fusiliers, recalled the historic moment. At Christmas, he recalled, soldiers of both sides spontaneously climbed out of their trenches at dawn, ceased hostilities, and partook in friendly exchanges. "It wasn't a game as such, more a kick-around and a free-for-all. There could have been 50 on each side for all I know. I played because I really liked football. I don't know how long it lasted, probably half an hour," he recalled.
而在1915年的平安夜裡,一顆來自德軍戰線的足球,成了和平的象徵。英國皇家威爾斯燧發槍團的二等兵柏堤·費爾斯特德(Bertie Felstead)在聖誕節唱了一夜的聖誕歌之後,回想起那時雙方士兵在黎明時自發地爬出各自戰壕,那高漲起來的友好氣氛:「這件事本身來說,與其說是場足球賽,更像是人人都可參加的到處踢球活動,就我所知那時每一邊都可能有約有50人加入活動。由於我個人很喜歡足球,於是我也參加了。我不清楚那場足球賽持續了多久,可能有一個半小時吧。」
27. a symbol of peace 和平的象徵
28. cease hostilities 停止戰鬥/戰爭行為
29. historic moment 歷史性時刻
30. partake in friendly exchange 參與友好交流
