Oct. 13
It was the second day of a three-day weekend. The good weather continues.
Today’s Dish
Bonio Carpaccio
Shine-Muscat & Mozzarella
Salad with kiwi, avocado, cherry tomatoes and prosciutto
Steak with domestic beef tenderloin
Today’s meat is a brand beef called Youyume Beef that I bought at Maruetsu.
It is said to be a cross between Holstein and Japanese black beef.
It is tender and tasty with firm flesh.
1st Domaine Pech Pouille Blanc 2021 1,200 yen
It is a white wine from the Languedoc-Minervois winery.
It is a sustainable wine made according to their own strict standards.
It is a blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Chardonnay, but the characteristics of the so-called varietal are not felt at all.
I felt densely packed fruits flavor and a plump mouthfeel.
It is full of pure and natural flavors.
Since it is such a thick white wine, it went well with the tenderloin steak.
I’ve been feeling a little tired lately, so I only had one bottle of wine today.
I also drank a little Armagnac for cooking.
