12/25
Tonight, I set the dinner table with my grandson and my son and his wife.
Today’s dish
I received “Herring and Hokke Izushi” from my friend in Sapporo again this year.
It’s delicious. It’s very delicious.
Before the wine, I had it with Ichinokura Yamatoden.
Salad with Chicken, Prosciutto, Avocado, Broccoli, Cherry-tomatoes, Kiwi and Apples
Red snapper Aqua Pazza
The chicken in the salad was made from the leftover meat around the bones from the chicken I roasted on yesterday’s “chicken roasting day”.
It’s moist and delicious even after a day.
It’s fun to have a dinner with the large family at the table.
Today’s Wine
1st Marquis de Beau Rond Sauvignon Blanc 2024 1,080 yen
To make aqua pazza, I opened Marquis de Beau Rond ‘s Sauvignon Blanc.
It was delicious, so I drank the rest of the bottle.
I’ve been drinking only expensive wines this week, so I was kind of relieved when I drank this.
Marquis de Beau Rond ‘s Sauvignon Blanc is delicious.
2nd Estate du Haut Planty Muscadet Sevres et Maine Les Yonnieres Vieilles Vignes 2021
It is a gift wine that I received. It’s a wine with a long name.
The shade is golden yellow, perfect gold.
I felt deep fruits flavor and rich mouthfeel. It is also full of minerality.
This is a special Muscadet. It went very well with Aqua Pazza.
3rd Friedrich Becker Steinwingert Pinot Noir 2018
So, it’s Christmas, my family is here, and I wanted to drink high-end Pinot Noir.
Then I opened this Becker.
This is a famous Pinot Noir wine from the Pfalz, Germany.
This Steinwingert is Becker’s masterpiece. But it seems that only 1,000 bottles have been made.
And this was the perfect Pinot Noir.
I want to drink this kind of Pinot Noir, and I’m alive, I thought.
If yesterday’s Tasmania was Premier Cru, this Becker is a Grand Cru.
Oh, super delicious!
