It was a very cold day.
It snowed a little.
1st Lieubeau Muscadet S&M Cru Crisson 2012 2500 yen New Arrivals
It is the one top cuvee of Lieubeau’s Muscadet.
The character is so different from another top cuvee Chateau Thebaud.
Thebaud has a very solid and cool style.
Crisson has a very rich and warm style.
I felt outstandingly delicious fruits, fine acidity and comfortable minerals.
I ‘m sure it is a very special Muscadet.
It is an outstanding Muscadet.
Some famous American wine writer scored 93 point for this.
I think 2500 yen is amazingly reasonable.
2nd Oriol Rossell Rocaplana Syrah 2014 2100 yen
It is the top cuvee red wine of the winery, too.
It is made from 100% Syrah from the estate vineyard grown by organic method.
Alcohol degree 13.5% is moderate as Spain fine wine.
I felt very elegant black fruits, silky tannin and comfortable after taste.
It is a very cool style of Spain red.
Top cuvee wines made by fine wineries always have something special.
