No Wine Day
Aug. 13
It was a day-off.
Also, I weeded my garden in the morning and tired a lot.
Then I cooked dinner.
Shoga
Edamame
Tofu
Sashimi
Salmon Poêlé
It was simple cooks today.
1st Aruga Branca Clareza 2016 Sample Tasting
I got this sample bottle of new vintage of Aruga Branca not yet released.
Oh! What a delicious Koshu is this!
It’s a tremendously pure Koshu wine.
I felt very pure and clean fruits, citrus and minerals.
I felt I tasted as if a very fine mineral water.
I am sure it has an essential of Koshu grape.
Tasty! Tasty!
2nd Arugano Monte 2016 Sample Tasting
The red wine is also not released yet.
It is made from 100% Muscat Bailey-A barrel matured.
It has very concentrated red fruits, very concentrated red fruits and very concentrated red fruits.
I didn’t feel any red candy nuance nor metallic flavor, which some Bailey-A often has.
It was so tasty. It was just my favorite taste.
I am looking forward to releasing this fine Muscat Bailey-A.
