May 14
I received Philippe & Mike, the owners of Overland Wines in Paris.
They are the agent of Relax Wine in France.
I have kept a very good relationship with them over twenty years.
I have contact with them almost everyday by internet.
However, it is the first time we have met for real in these three years.
I invited them a wine dinner to Ginger Grass, which is a modern Asian restaurant in Shinjuku.
We have got a lot of catching up to do but we talked about only mindless chatter.
I brought my recommendation wines.
The restaurant allows BYO officially.
Chase the Grape Field Blend 2021
Hamada Vineyard Chardonnay 2020
Stark Conde Cabernet Sauvignon Oude Nektar 2014
Fortunately, French person liked them very much.
Also, we enjoyed very nice Asian dishes.
The real meeting with nice wine and foods is quite different from online.
It was an excellent dinner.
I think I did a very good job.
See you again!
