W have kept unbelievably hot days in Tokyo.
I was going to have a No Wine Day but I couldn’t.
1st Palazzi Catarratto 2018 860 yen
It is a new arrival from Sicilia in Italy.
It is made from 100% Catarrato, a local grape variety.
I felt very fresh aroma, crispy fruits, fine acidity and nice minerals.
The style is very clean and natural.
It is quite different from ordinary cheep wines we often find, I think.
Very good!
2nd Palazzi Nero D’Avola 2017 860 yen
The red is made from 100% Nero D’Avola grown in Sicilia.
The grape normally becomes dark and full-bodied high alcohol wine.
But it is quite different from the normal style.
It is a really cool and elegant red wine.
I felt charming black fruits like a black cherry or plum, slight bitter & spice and good minerals.
I think, it has a super high cost performance.
