No Wine Day

 

 

Aug. 21

I cooked dinner.

 

 

Prosciutto

 

 

 

 

Chirashi-Sushi a la Mediterranean

 

 

 

 

I marinated sashimi by extra-versine olive oil, lemon and balsamic vinegar.

 

 

 

 

 

I cooked Chirashi-Sushi at the first time in a long while.

I did a very good job.

 

 

 

 

 

1st Kizan Selection Chardonnay 2019  1900 yen

It is made from 100% Chardonnay grown in Enzan Yamanashi.

It is an extremely pure and clean white wine.

I felt the elegance of Chardonnay very much.

I could see delicious-ripe grapes a lot.

What a wonderful Chardonnay is this!

I can’t understand why the price is so cheap.

 

 

2nd Kizan Selection Merlot / Petit Verdot 2019  2300 yen

It is made from 75% Merlot and 25% Petit Verdot grown in Enzan Yamanashi.

I found a lot of charming berry fruits, like a cassis, blueberry, prune and dark cherry, etc.

I also felt elegant tannin, some herb nuance and comfortable mouthfeel.

Before I tasted the same wine, I felt some reductive flavor at first.

But I didn’t feel any off-flavor in this time.

It is a very, very fine red wine.

I think the price is too much cheap, too.
