Jun. 12
I went to “The Cellar Toranomon Hills” which is a new wine shop at “Fukushimaya Tasting Market” in Toranomon Hills Businnes Tower B1F.
The new building opened yesterday.
The shop is stylish.
There are a lot of fine wines.
You can choose Relax Wine, too.
You should go to the new wine shop.
I bought several gourmet delis for dinner at Fukushimaya.
1st Domaine de Pepouy Colombard Sauvignon 2017 1,000 yen + tax
It is made from 50% Colombard and 50% Sauvignon Blanc grown in the estate vineyards of an Armagnac producer in South-West France.
I felt very clean fruits, fine-impressive acidity and nice minerals.
The style is very pure & natural.
It is just my favorite style.
Tasty!
2nd Domaine de Pepouy Tannat Merlot 2017 1,000 yen + tax
Tannat is a local grape variety in South-West France and becomes a solid style red wine.
Because the grape is strong for rain, it is probably good for Japanese weather, they say recently.
This blend with Merlot got a big success, I think.
I like a lot of fine red berries, mild tannin and very comfortable mouthfeel.
The grapes picked up in mid night to keep cool temperature.
It is delicious!
