Aug. 22
I encountered a guerrilla downpour on the road.
A large amount of water like a waterfall fell from the sky, and I was terrified.
After returning home, I made eel-cooked rice today.
Today, the usual Chinese eels were not sold, so I had no choice but to buy expensive eels from Kagoshima.
After all, is this one better?
The pickles were also delicious.
1st Da Vero Catarratto 2023 Sample Tasting
Today is the sample tasting from Italy.
It is an organic wine from Sicily.
It is made from 100% Catarratto, a local grape variety.
I felt pure fruits flavor with a sense of transparency, citrus acidity and a pleasant minerality.
It has a gentle and natural mouthfeel.
It’s a very well-balanced white wine.
2nd Da Vero Nero d’Avola 2022 Sample Tasting
The second red is also a sample tasting.
It is made from 100% Nero d’Avola, organically grown in the northwestern region of Sicily.
I felt black berry fruits flavor reminiscent of prunes.
I has a firm yet smooth tannins.
The aftertaste is also pleasant, and you can drink more and more.
It is a wine from the south where the temperature is high, but it is a very elegant style.
All of the samples that arrived this time are excellent.
