I cooked dinner, Temaki-Sushi.
All of the fishes were wild and fresh, not sea farm or frozen.
Very good!
1st Bellwood Vineyard Collection Classique Koshu 2020 2200 yen
Bellwood Vineyard is a new winery in Kaminoyama Yamagata.
Mr. Suzuki, the owner & winemaker, used to be the winemaker of Asahimachi Wine.
It is made from 100% Koshu grown in Yamagata.
The Koshu grape in Yamagata is northern limited one of the variety.
I felt sharp acidity, pure fruits and very good minerals.
I think this one has the sharpest acidity in the Koshu wines.
Also, the rich body and elegant mouthfeel is a top class in all of the Koshu wines.
Very good! Very good!
2nd Bellwood Vineyard Collection Classique Muscat Bailey-A 2020 2200 yen
The red wine is very good, too.
It is made from 100% Muscat Bailey-A grown in Kaminoyama.
I could see very fresh and very natural face of the grapes.
I felt seamless tannin, beautiful red berries and very comfortable mouthfeel.
The style is really pure an natural.
I never found any off-flavor.
It is a top class of Muscat Bailey-A wines, I think.
Tasty! Tasty!
