Non-Filtered

Jun. 16

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.
