1st La Croix Gratiot Picpoul de Pinat 2023 2,000 yen
When I am in the mood for a glass of fine white wine today, this Picpoul from Languedoc is the perfect place to start.
It is made from organically grown grapes in the estate vineyards.
I felt thick and rich fruits flavor, citrus acid reminiscent of grapefruit, and deep minerality.
I also felt very pure and clear taste.
It is so delicious!
Umm…
It’s a really good wine.
2nd La Croix Gratiot Pinot Noir 2022 3,000 yen
It is a top cuvee from a winery made from Pinot Noir grown organically in the estate vineyards.
This is amazing!
Previous vintages have been great Pinot Noir, but I think this new vintage is of the best quality ever.
Pinot Noir’s unique red fruit flavor is layered on top of each other.
Acidity, astringency, minerality, and all the other complex and elegant flavors are perfectly balanced at a very high point.
This is amazing!
I feel a style reminiscent of a very expensive Burgundy.
I thought it would be good to buy a box of this.
