I took a physical examination today. Doctor warned me that I had to reduce my drinking of wine otherwise I was going to have big problems near future.
Oh ! My ! .... I will reduce my drinking....

But I cooked dinner tonight. Iksasashi, Bonito Carppacio, Roast Vegetables and Roast Chicken. They were very nice.
I was not able to stand for drinking.
1st
Domaine Michel Coutoux Bourgogne Chardonnay
2001 1900 yen
I remembered Mr. Michel Coutoux was a son-in-low of a famous Mr. Michel Niellon, owner of Domaine Michel Niellon. This was the first time that I drank this Burgundy white. Oh ! It was a very beautiful style. I felt a peach smell & flavor much. I thought this was like a good Viognier. This was not so strong, but elegant and very good balance. I was going to reduce drinking.
Then I drank this slowly and stopped drinking at half. I knew what a blessing good wine was !?@?@


2nd
Domaine Baillat Corbieres
2002 1100 yen
This was so nice ! The typical very nice Syrah in South France. The vintage 2002 was so elegant and very good balance. I love this ! I was not able to stop drinking at half.
