Hydrangeas in my garden are at their best now.
Beautiful!
1st Chateau Saint-Jacques d’Albas Domaine D’Albas Blanc 2017 1450 yen + tax It is made from Viognier and Vermentino grown in the estate vineyards in Minervois by “Method Cousinié, a special natural farming.
It is really, really tasty.
I felt outstandingly fine minerals, gorgeous fruits and many charming tastes.
Minervois produces mostly re wine but there is such nice white wine.
Beautiful!
2nd Chateau Saint-Jacques d’Albas Domaine D’Albas Minervois 2016 1450 yen + tax If you ask me,” Where is your best area in Languedoc?”
I will answer, ” It is Minervois.” With no doubt.
Languedoc produces mostly strong style red wines but the style of Minervois is elegant.
I felt very rich fruits, charming red berries and ultra-mild tannins.
It has some Burgundy wine nuance, I think.
Very delicious!
