I treated myself

Apr. 25

It was a day-off today.

I weeded my garden, as well.

 

 

 

 

Before

 

 

 

 

After

 

 

 

 

I got two bags of weeds.

 

 

 

 

I was very tired.

 

 

Then I cooked dinner, Temaki-sushi.

 

Because the third state emergency has started today, I can’t go to a big market.

I bought seafood at two supermarkets near my home.

 

 

 

 

Fortunately, I got better fresh fishes than I expected.

 

 

 

 

 

Very good!

 

 

 

 

1st Tauss Weissburgunder OPOK 2017  3480 yen

Because I worked very hard today, I treated myself to fine wines.

I bought this one at R the wine shop in Kobe in this month.

It is made from 100% Weissburgunder grown in Austria by Biodynamie method.

I felt very natural-elegant fruits, good acidity and minerals.

I also felt some minty nuance like a time and rosemary.

It was a very fine natural white wine.

Especially, daimajo-sama loves this style recently.

 

 

2nd Domaine de la Vougeraie Bourgogne Pinot Noir Terres de Famille 2015  3900 yen

I bought this one at R the wine shop in Kobe, too.

It was a recommendation from Mr. Watanabe, the owner of the shop.

Vougeraie is the top Domaine in Boisset Group, which is a major wine conglomerate.

It is made from 100% Pinot Noir grown in the estate vineyards in Nuits and Beaune by organic method.

I felt very concentrated red fruits, very fine acidity, silky tannin and long after taste.

It is super fine Bourgogne rouge, I think.

The price is very reasonable.

 

 

Both wine and sushi was outstanding today.

Thank you very much for Watanabe-san!
