We are in the rainy season in Tokyo.
I have a running in the morning even though in the rain.
I am used-up every day.
1st Kobe Wine Non-Filtered Chardonnay 2020 2640 yen
I bought three bottles of this Chardonnay at the winery.
They are the last stock.
It is very nice.
I felt fresh fruits, pure citrus, fine acidity and crispy minerals.
It is delicious.
There are many sediments because of non-filtered.
I think it is no problem.
However, we often receive complains due to sediments in the bottle.
Then almost all wineries use filter when bottling.
I think wine loses some goodness with the filtering.
How do you think it?
2nd Marmandais Murets de Gouts Merlot-Cabernet 2018 1000 yen
It is made from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grown in Cotes du Marmandais, where is the next area of East Bordeaux.
I tasted this one at the first time recently.
I was sure again it was a very nice wine.
I felt modest fruits, dense tannin, soft acidity and simple mouthfeel.
The style is a classic standard Bordeaux rouge, I think.
I like the style.
