Even though the long continued rain, the cluster coloring of the Cabernet in my garden advanced.

 

 

 

Also I found the third cluster.

 

 

 

 

 

 

1st Oriol Rossell Xino-Xano Xarel-lo Muscat 2020  1250 yen

We received the new arrivals of this my favorite wine with the new vintage.

It is made from Xarel-lo and Muscat grown in the estate vineyards in Penedes by organic method.

I am going to taste it at the first time.

Oh! It’s great!

I felt very fresh fruits, tasty citrus and fine minerals.

I couldn’t find any bad smell, taste or flavor.

It is a really, really clean-beautiful white wine.

It might be the best wine in this price zone.

 

 

2nd Oriol Rossell Xino-Xano Merlot Syrah 2020  1250 yen

Also, we received the new vintage of this red wine.

It is made from Merlot and Syrah grown in the estate vineyards in Penedes by organic method, too.

The red is not so great but very good.

I felt charming red fruits, nice acidity and light tannin.

The mouthfeel was very cool and elegant.

The alcohol degree is not so high, 13%.

I need not ice cubes today.

It’s very fresh and tasty.
