La Croix Gratiot

Aug. 21

I am still recovering from the weed yesterday.

My every morning running got cut off today.

Then I could work hard in the morning.

 

 

1st La Croix Gratiot Picpoul de Pinet 2018  1500 yen + tax

It is my house wine.

When I want to taste some upper class wine than usual, I often pick up this Languedoc white wine.

I like the fresh aroma, very nice citrus, beautiful fruits and excellent minerals.

It is a perfect white wine for me.

 

 

2nd La Croix Gratiot Le Chant des Dolia Rouge 2017  4200 yen + tax

It is the new top cuvee of the winery made by a very old traditional method.

This one is the first vintage made from Mourvedre, Syrah and Grenache.

This red wine is fermented and matured in “Dolia”, which is a Roman pot in Languedoc as same as “Qvevri” in Georgia or “Amphora” in Greece.

I felt very elegant fruits, complex-excellent acidity, silky tannin and deep fines.

I am sure it is an outstanding red wine in Languedoc.

Supérieur!
