Not imported yet

May 30

I still have kept a jet lag.

Actually, I have a not only jet lag but also something different damage from the trip to Portugal.

 

 

1st Famille Lieubeau Methode Traditionnelle Brut NV 2160 yen

It is made from Folle Blanche and Chardonnay by the winery located is Muscadet Liore.

I felt clear babbles and fine fruits.

Also I strongly felt comfortable yeast nuance and sharp minerals.

It was a very tasty sparkling wine.

 

 

2nd Tyto Alba Touriga Nacional 2015 Sample Tasting

The winery, we visited at last in our Portugal Wine Tour last week, gave us the bottles with woody gift box.

It looks so cute.

 

 

A pretty white owl is on the label.

The taste is a typical Touriga Nacional’s one.

I felt concentrated rich fruits and dense tannin.

However, it was very soft, mild and elegant.

 

Because I heard the wine has not been imported in Japan yet, I was very interested in this wine in Portugal.

I was sure again it was a very fine Portuguese red wine.

 

Actually, I have made a contact to the winery after I came back Japan.

Good luck!
