Oct. 1
Oh! October already has come!
Because daimajo-sama got well from her stomach problem, we tried to taste two bottles as usual.
1st Grimau Blanc de Blanc 2013 1080 yen
It is made in Penedes Spain by a small estate winery.
The winery produces popular sparkling wine in Cave de Relax, “Trancadis”.
This white is made from the same grapes of Trancadis, Macabeo, Xarel.lo, Parellada and Chardonnay.
I was impressed in this cool acidity and fresh fruits.
If I tasted it by blind, I probably said “Kerner from Hokkaido”.
Very good wine.
2nd Cescon Pinot Nero 2014 1320 yen
I bought this by my internet shop special recommend set.
The set has four bottles of Pinot Noir and eight bottles of decent wine with only 10,000 yen.
It sells very well now.
This Pinot Noir is very elegant.
I was impressed in this really elegant red berries and acidity.
It’s not “gammy” Pinot Noir.
I felt very delicate “fines” of the Pinot Noir.
If I tasted it by blind, I probably said, “Pinot Noir from Hokkaido”.
Very good wine!
