I don’t want to say it anymore, but this heat is unbearable.
Today’s dish
Salad with Shrimp, Mozzarella, Broccoli, Okra, Cherry-tomatoes, Kiwi and Apples
Kuroge Wagyu Beef Rump Steak
Today’s Japanese black beef is a 4th grade excellent one.
With each bite, the juicy meat juices fill my mouth.
It was completely different from the cheap imported meat last time.
Today’s Wine
Andreza Grande Reserva 2014
I wanted to drink some punchy wine to go with the black wagyu beef steak, so I searched my cellar.
So, I decided to drink the Douro wine I bought during my visit to Portugal seven years ago.
The Douro region of Portugal is too famous as a port wine production area, but recently it has also attracted attention as a still wine production area.
Yes, as intended, it is a very punchy wine.
I felt dense berry fruits, concentrated acidity, firm tannins, and a long aftertaste.
It is a thick full-bodied wine, but it has a very well-balanced taste, combined with high acidity, and is not sticky at all.
Even after 11 years of aging, it still retains its fresh flavor.
It is a good wine that shows the potential of Portuguese wine.
The presence of wine was better than today’s steak.
