A sample tasting of a new lot

Aug. 9

Many people may be on summer vacation from today.

 

I don’t have summer vacation for housework and nursing care.

For the time being, let’s work sparingly.

 

 

Today’s dish

Edamame

 

 

Grilled bonito Chinese style

 

 

Salad with prosciutto, mozzarella, broccoli, okra, cherry tomatoes, kiwi and apple

 

 

Aussie Beef Steak with Mustard Sauce

 

 

As I bought cheap meat at the supermarket, it was streaky and hard.

But it was delicious when I chewed it well.

 

 

Today’s Wine

 

 

Palazzi Nero d’Avola 2022 1,250 yen

This is a sample tasting of a new lot that arrived from Sicily, Italy last month.

This is the same vintage as the current stock.

I felt the flavor of red fruits, reminiscent of raspberries, and the flavors of black fruits, reminiscent of prunes, appear in a well-balanced manner.

It has an accent by the slight bitterness unique to the variety.

The smooth and light aftertaste is pleasant.

This Sicilian red wine is delicious.

It went well with today’s steak.
