Very Warm Day

Feb. 7

It was a very warm day in Tokyo.

 

I cooked a pasta using the leftover sashimi from Temaki-Sushi yesterday.

 

 

 

 

Very good!

 

 

 

 

1st La Croix Gratiot Picpoul de Pinet 2019  1580 yen + tax

It is my most favorite white wine in this class.

It is made from 100% Pucpoul grown in the estate vineyards by sustainable farming.

It is outstandingly delicious.

I love the clean fruits, very good citrus and tremendously fine minerals.

The style is really pure and natural.

Great!

 

 

2nd Cescon Cabernet NV  1100 yen + tax

We received this brand-new red wine last December.

It is made from 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 50% Cabernet Franc grown in Veneto Italy.

The general image of Cabernet is dark, tannic and full-bodied.

But this one is totally opposite.

I felt fresh aroma, elegant fruits, nice acidity, light tannin and comfortable after taste.

The mouthfeel was very cool.

I like this style very much.

It is a truly good wine, I think.
