Mariona

Jul. 27

The typhoon was approaching.

I had a run in the rain early morning.

At the middle of run, I was caught in a heavy downpour.

It was a very hard job.

1st Mariona Moscatel / Sauvignon Blanc 2019  1050 yen

It is made from 50% Moscatel (Muscat) and 50% Sauvignon Blanc made in Alicante Spain.

I felt very rich fruits, good citrus and nice minerals.

I’s a very aromatic white wine.

I think it has very high cost performance.

 

 

2nd Mariona Alicante Bouschet 2018  1050 yen

It is made from 100% Alicante Boushcet made in Alicante Spain.

Alicante Boushcet is a hybrid grape variety born in Spain in the late 19th century.

Because the grape has a very dark color and strong acidity, it was usually used for a red wine blend in old time.

However, recently, you can find a very elegant Alicante Bouscht 100% red wine like Pinot Noir.

This red wine is also very elegant.

I felt a lot of red fruits, good acidity and sharp mouthfeel.

It is very good for a chilly drinking in summer time.
