I cooked dinner, Temaki-Sushi.
Because we had some guests tonight, the volume was more than usual.
Shirako!
1st Thierry Massin Selection Brut NV 5400 yen
It is made in Cote des Bar, a small Cru located in south-east Champagne, from 100% Pinot Noir.
I like this elegant acidity and tinny babbles.
The after taste is very long and comfortable.
Good Champagne is always very impressive.
2nd Rubaiyat Koshu Barrel Aged 2014
I was gifted this fine Koshu from Mr. Omura, who is the owner of the winery.
Actually, I don’t prefer to a barrel aged Koshu but it is an exception.
I felt very rich fruits, which hardly find in Koshu.
It is a very big Koshu wine, very good for Temaki-Sushi.
3rd Crystallum Mabalel Pinot Noir 2014 5680 yen
I was very impressed in this Pinot Noir at staff wine seminar in last month.
It required a big courage for me to buy South Africa Pinot Noir with 5680 yen.
However, I didn’t regret to buy this indeed.
It was an outstanding Pinot Noir.
I think it is one of the world best class Pinot Noirs.
Everybody today moved a lot.
So delicious!
