1st Kumamoto Wine Kikka Cabernet Sauvignon Clairet 2018 3273 yen
2nd Kobe Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon Clairet 2021 3200 yen
I tried a comparative tasting with the two Cabernet Sauvignon Clairet made in Kumamoto and Kobe in Japan.
Both of the wines have a real character of aroma and flavor of Cabernet Sauvignon.
Because Kumamoto is four year matured, I felt a soft fruits touch and dry taste.
As Kobe is a young vintage, I felt very fresh fruits, nice acidity, slight tannin and comfortable mlouthfeel.
Both of the wines were very nice.
They showed a good potential of Cabernet Sauvignon Clairet, I think.
Personally, I like a fresh Kobe Clairet.
