1st Kobe Reserva Chardonnay Non-Filtration 2021 3200 yen

I was in charge of this new wine making project.

It is made from 100% Chardonnay grown in Kobe and produced by some natural wine making method.

It was my regular quality check tasting.

I felt natural-pure fruits, elegant acidity and nice minerals.

I felt the body had grown in thickness than before.

I am sure again it is a very fine Chardonnay.

 

 

2nd La Grande Colline Japon Syokoshi 2020

Mr. Ohoka, the owner and winemaker of the winery, is a world famous BIO wine producer.

It is made from 90% Syokoshi and 10% Fuji-no-Yume, both which are Japan hybrid grape variety.

It was fermented by wild yeast without sulfur and additives.

At first, I felt some oxidation nuance.

But very big fruits appeared on the nuance soon.

Then I found very comfortable grape essence, unique grape acidity and fine minerals.

This red wine were getting better and better by each glass.

Finally, I found out it was a very special wine.

I regret that I opened this one too much casually.
