Jan. 14
The new vintage of Hewitt Doube ++ 2018, which is a cult wine of Napa, arrived.
I was invited to the unveiling dinner party.
The dinner started with Champagne Delamotto.
Then they served Leroy Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot 2014.
What a gorgeous starting is this!
The event was held at Iizaka, a traditional French restaurant in Yotsuya.
They serve very authentic cuisines with luxury ingredients.
Amazingly, they cooked a red wine sauce today with two bottle of Hewitt Double ++ 2018!!
I have already dealt 2017 Hewitt Double ++.
Both 2017 and 2018 vintages have a similar style.
They are made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon growing in Napa Valley.
I felt extremely elegant fruits, outstandingly beautiful acidity and tannins.
Especially, I was moved by fabulously seamless mouthfeel.
I felt 2018 vintage had a slight clearer acidity.
I was sure that both of bottles were far outstanding-special wine.
Finally, we were served Chateau d’Yquem 1991!
It was an extremely fantastic dinner.
Thank you very much indeed!
