I was invited to a presentation party for ALTAIR , a new Chilean wine, today.
Altair is made by a joint-venture between Chateu Dassault, owned by Dassault France well-known by a producer of Mirage fighting plane, and San Pedro Chile.


I heard two expensive wines were releasing soon, Altair 10,000 yen and Sideral 5,000 yen.
The party was named "Space Cruise Night".
The place was very dark. There were many "Celebrities" at the party.
I took a picture with Ms.Noriwa, a member of staff of Chile Embassy.
Then after I went home.

1st
Hillcrest Chardonnay 2004
Sample Tasting
This is the sample from South Africa brought by a winery owner, he is working at his vineyards himself. It was made by 100 % Chardonnay from the estate vineyards in Durbanville.
The winery produced only 3000 cases in a year.
It was a beautiful Chardonnay, I loved it.
I might be going to buy this....

2nd
Le Paradou Cotes du Ruberon 2003
1000 yen
It has been getting cool in these day. Then I think the red wine is getting better and better.
I think it is good for drinking in cool temperature that the red wine with a great passion like this.
This was very delicious. Tasting comment from Paul : Forest fruit aromas, sweet pepper , truffle, leather and forest floor, foursquare and racy in the mouth.
