The hydrangeas in my garden are in bloom.
1st Oku-Izumo Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2021 2866 yen
Oku-Izumo Vineyard is one of most my favorite wineries in Japan.
It is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grown in Shimane.
I felt fresh fruits, elegant citrus, mild acidity and delicate minerals.
The taste was very pure and natural.
It is a truly nice wine.
2nd Estezargues Organic Cotes du Rhone Rouge 2020 1580 yen
It is made from Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault grown in South Cotes du Rhone by organic method.
All of the grapes are fermented by wild yeast without sulfur.
I felt concentrated fruits, dense acidity and long after taste.
The style is full-bodied but the mouthfeel is very smooth and elegant.
I felt the both good points from South Rhone and “BIO” method.
It is a truly nice wine.
