Aug. 13
It was a day-off.
I pulled up the weeds in my garden in the morning.
I did the job for two hours.
I broke a sweat very much.
Then I was hit with a tragedy.
I did the laundry my punts with my iPhone.
Oh! No!
I felt down a lot but I cooked dinner, Temaki-Sushi.
Very good!
1st Ajimu Wine Imoridani Chardonnay 2016 3200 yen New Arrivals
Ajimu Wine is located in Oita and one of the top wineries in Kyushu.
The wine is difficult to find in Tokyo.
I managed to get the new business relationship with the winery.
This Chardonnay is fermented and matured in French oak cusk.
I felt very elegant fruits, fine citrus, comfortable minerals and long after taste.
It is an outstanding Chardonnay in Japan, I think.
Delicious!!
2nd Asahimachi Wine Kashiwara Vineyard Late Harvest 2017 1620 yen
It is made from 100% Muscat Bailey-A grown in Asahimachi Yamagata.
Because the vineyard is located at high altitude, the grapes were harvested late November.
All of the grapes matured perfectly.
I felt very concentrated fruits, dense acidity, silky tannin and fine minerals.
It is an outstanding Muscat Bailey-A, I think.
I am sure it is difficult to say that it is Muscat Bailey-A if I taste this by blind.
Delicious!!
This red wine got the trophy award of Japan Wine Competition 2018.
Unfortunately, it has already been out of stock.
