I was gifted an expensive Sukiyaki beef from my friend.
Then I had a Sukiyaki dinner today.
That’s gorgeous!
I had nice oysters, too.
Very good!
1st Rubaiyat Sauvignon Blanc 2020 3190 yen
I bought this one at the winery last year.
It is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grown in the estate vineyards in Katsunuma.
The wine is produced in stemless tank avoiding contact with the air as possible.
I felt very fresh-elegant fruits, fine citrus, good minerals.
It was a gorgeous Sauvignon Blanc.
Even though it is a real dry white wine, I felt some comfortable sweetness.
It was very good for both oysters and sukiyaki.
2nd Rubaiyat Koshu Kamoshi 2020 2420 yen
I bought this one at the winery, too.
It is made from 100% Koshu grown in the two estate vineyards, Miyaoshita-en and Koizumi-en, in Katsunuma.
It is an orange wine. The color is a beautiful rose.
The wine is macerated with grape skins and seeds.
I felt big volume fruits, clear acidity and comfortable tannins.
This big body is different from other ordinary Koshu wine.
It was very good for sukiyaki today!
