Sep. 24
I visited the graves of my father and mother at the temple in Itabashi.
Although the sun is strong, the air is fresh. It’s autumn.
After visiting the grave, I visited “Wine＆Sake Shopp Todaya” in Itabashi Nishidai.
It’s been a long time since I visited, but the selection of unique wines selected by the owner, Mr. and Mrs. Tanaka, remains the same.
After talking about wine with Mr. and Mrs Tanaka for a while, I bought three bottles of white wine and two bottles of red wine.
Todaya’s wines are never missed. This time, too, there are only unique wines that I can’t usually drink. I’m looking forward to it.
I went home and cooked quickly.
Madai Carpaccio
Salad with Pumpkin, Chicken, Egg, Broccoli, Cherry-tomatoes, Kiwi and Apple
Seafood Doria
This doria was made and frozen before.
It was inferior to freshly made, but it was delicious as usual.
Today’s Wine
Ancora Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2024 1,250 yen
It is my favorite red wine these days.
It is made from 100% Montepulciano grown in Abruzzo, Italy.
The grapes harvested from old trees over 50 years old are fermented with wild yeast.
In this price class, this spec is valuable.
And the quality is as expected that does not betray the specs.
I felt the concentrated berry flavor, the gentleness and suppleness of old grapes fermented by wild yeast.
The beautiful acid is also impressive. This is a very good wine.
