Rubaiyat & Furano Wine

Jul. 6

I cooked dinner, Temaki-Sushi.

 

 

Very good!

 

 

 

1st Rubaiyat Koshu Kamoshi 2016

I bought this at the winery last year.

I think the price was less than 2000 yen.

It is made from 100% Koshu grown in Katsumuma Yamanashi buy as same as the red wine maceration method.

It looks rose wine due to Koshu skin color.

I felt a very nice acidity, fine fruits and some spairmint nuance.

I like this very much!

It was very good for sushi tonight.

The label says the total production is 503 bottles.

Oh! Very low!!

 

 

2nd Furano Wine Higuma no Banshaku 2016

I bought this at the hotel shop I stayed last March buy skiing in Furano Hokkaido.

It is s made from Furano #2, which is a hybrid grape born from some French grape and Japanese original grape variety.

I felt a very vivid acidity, big fruits and dense tannin.

I didn’t feel any rough taste and flavor, which some hybrid grapes often have.

I was sure again it is a very unique and fine Japan Wine.

Unfortunately, this red wine is only sold in Hokkaido.

Unfortunately…
