Amazing southern hemisphere wines

Jul. 2

My son and his wife came home with my grandson.

My house is in an uproar.

Daimaoj-sama seems to be happy.

 

 

She can respond properly to her grandchild.

 

Today, we had a Temaki-sushi party.

Shelled sea urchins.

 

 

Hon-Maguro, Kihada-Maguro, Madai, squirrel, Katsuo, Aji, squid, Shirasu, Salmon, Cucumber, Tuna-mayo

 

 

Temaki-sushi is more fun to eat with many people.

 

 

The today’s wine were from the southern hemisphere, which my son chose.

 

 

1st CWG Newton Johnson Chardonnay 2021

Newton Johnson, one of South Africa’s top wineries, has specially prepared the cuvée for auction.

This Chardonnay is a surprising wine that tastes super dreadnought.

It’s almost the perfect Chardonnay.

It may be the best Chardonnay I’ve had in years.

The exquisite fruits flavor and the nuances of the barrel were exquisite.

 

 

2nd Crystallum Peter Max Pinot Noir 2023

This is also amazing.

 Like Newton Johnson, it is a top winery in South Africa located in Walker Bay.

You can’t talk about South African Pinot Noir without mentioning this Crystallum.

It’s a wonderful, stunning Pinot Noir.

I can’t stop drinking wine because I’m happy to encounter these wines.

Wow.

 

 

3rd Alkimi Marsanne 2023

A white wine again. This is the wine that my son brought back from Australia in May.

Alkimi is a natural winery in the Yarra Valley.

Marsanne in the Yarra Valley is rare.

And this is also a really great wine.

I felt elegant fruits flavor with outstanding minerality.

I also felt the minty nuances unique to Marsanne.

It’s pure and elegant. It’s rich and refreshing.

Today’s wines were all outstanding and truly wonderful.
