Apr 29  Mr.Alastair MALING MW, Group Winemaker of ViIla Maria which is the top winery in New Zealand, came to Cave de Re-Lax today. It was pleasure to meet him for me.
It is the first day of "Golden Week" today. It means national holidays week in Japan. MW means Master of Wine. GW means Golden Week. Then we started GW sale from today as usual.
We had huge customers. I did not expect such a lot of customers coming today. It was a kind of panic. Many many thanks.
1st
Chateau Guilhem de Rey 2000 950 yen
I bought a special wine-set at our internet shop. This white was in the set. This was my recommend Bordeaux sec made by 100 % Semillon. I loved this fine mature taste, similar with matured Alsace Riesling GC or Sauternes sec from some big Chateau I thought.
I guess the white is very good for people who drink wine a lot.

2nd
Chateau Sarati Pinot 2002 900yen
This Romanian Pinot Noir is also in the set. The picture is 2001 vintage, but actually I drank 2002 in the set, new arrival. It was really tasty.
I enjoyed this a lot. I thought 2001 vintage might had a kind of iron taste, which might caused drinkers to say different opinions. But this 2002 has not a such taste. It was clean - elegant - concentrated - very good Pinot Noir. This is Pinot Noir. I am sure price 900 yen is super reasonable.
