Tasting a Good Sake

Oct. 13

It was the anniversary of professor Susato’s death, who was my teacher in university.

 

I visited his grave with my alumni.

Praying.

 

As I wanted to taste some good sake, I bought a bottle of fine sake, Junmai-Ginko, on the way to home.

 

That’s very nice!

 

 

1st Bellwood Vineyard Collection Superieure Koshu 2021

Bellwood Vineyard is a small private winery in Kaminoyama Yamagata.

It is made from 100% Koshu grown in Tsuruoka Yamagata.

This one is the upper class wine of the winery.

At first, I felt a very fresh grape aroma and flavor.

Then I was impressed fabulously beautiful acidity and marvelously fine minerals.

It is a wonderful Koshu wine.

It shows a huge potential of Koshu grape, I think.
