No Wine Day
Feb. 10
In my hometown of Tsurukawa, I organized a private wine party.
When we were meeting at the station, we met the owner of the local winery, Mr.
Mitsugu Yamada and his family.
I was able to take a photo unique to the local area.
By the way, the venue is the restaurant “Obaitori” in Tsurukawa Kogoyamaen.
Overlooking the pond and spring strolling garden built in the Edo period, here is a Japanese restaurant that has been renovated from a 120-year-old palace.
The staff of the former Cave de Relax gathered.
In this quaint room, we were served sophisticated Japanese cuisines.
I don’t think this is in front of the local Tsurukawa station.
It’s as if you’ve come to Kyoto or Kamakura.
All the dishes are very delicious!
Each participant brought one bottle of wine.
The pre-meeting was only about color, but it was a well-balanced lineup.
NIKI HILLS Chardonnay 2020
Chase the Grape Albarino 2023
Bernhard Huber Marterdinger Rose 2022
Stardust Vineyard 2024 Cry for the Moon 2024
Kido Winery Private Reserve Flower 2015
The one bottle is Germany and the other four are Japan.
All the precious wines were wonderful ones that left an impression.
As expected, it is a selection of professionals who have been in the wine industry for many years.
It was fun. It was delicious.
I think there were quite a lot of harsh stories, but I don’t remember what we talked about at all.
Thank you very much. Let’s get together again!
