Oh! December has come!

 

 

Today’s dinner was Oden, Japanese hotchpotch, cooked by daimajo-sama.

 

 

 

 

1st Estezargues Organic Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2019  1300 yen + tax

It is difficult to choose the wine which is good for Oden.

Oden’s concentrated seafood flavor often disturbs wine taste, I think.

This one is that.

It has seamless fruits, moderate acidity and slurry mouthfeel.

I also felt mild flavor and good minerals thanks of the organic method.

daimajo-sama was surprised at the nice marriage.

 

 

2nd Estezargues Organic Cotes du Rhone Rouge 2019  1300 yen + tax

I chose a bottle of Estezargues red wine, too.

It is made from Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault grown in South Rhone by organic method with no sulfur and wild yeast.

I felt very concentrated red fruits with a very little soy sauce nuance.

It was good for Oden, too.

I found that I was good at the wine choice.
