Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Rouge 2019

By 305|2024-08-30T19:05:03+00:00December 9, 2022|Categories: $80 And Above, Biodynamic, France, Natural Wines, Red Wines, Rhone Valley|

Château de Beaucastel has long been regarded as one of the greatest wines in France. It is notorious for its elegance, balance and ageing potential. Beaucastel has an exceptional terroir at the Northern limit of Châteauneuf du Pape, exposed to the Mistral wind. All thirteen varieties of the appellation have been organically grown since the sixties. Magnificent deep-colour of an intense ruby-red. Typical of Beaucastel, the nose is rich and complex but very fresh, with an opulent aromatic bouquet dominated by notes of fresh fruit and spices. Full,-bodied, soft, eminently silky, this very elegant wine reveals a superb, dense structure on the palate, very fine tannins and gourmet aromas of fresh red fruit, currants and noble spices. The finish has great length, ample and harmonious. A fruity vintage with great aging potential.

Subtle hint of umami rich kombu dashi with slight pepperiness ending in warm aroma freshly cooked rice.

Yamagata prefecture has established itself as one of the top Ginjo and Daiginjo producing region of Japan and backs up the claim with locally developed rice strains best suited for the terroir. Yamagata is the first to implement Geographic Indication (GI). Sawane is currently in review process. The Gokujo has already been approved. Sawane means harmoniously brewed in Yamagata.

Using locally developed Dewanosato rice and Yamagata Ginjo yeast, Sawane opens with a bright and fruity aroma of fresh pear and finishes with a crisp but fruity finish. This sake’s namesake is Benten, the beautiful goddess of wisdom, music and good fortune. May she bring you the best of luck.

Gian Luca Colombo Barolo DOCG 2018

By 305|2024-08-13T15:40:44+00:00December 19, 2022|Categories: $80 And Above, Italy, Red Wines|

The fruit is sourced from the following crus: Bricco Ambrogio (Roddi village), Roere di Santa Maria (La Morra), Bussia (Monforte d’Alba). The emphasis on Roddi and La Morra help explain the airy style of the wine, a lighter style than wines coming from the villages of Barolo or Serralunga, for example. Gian Luca explains about the 2018 vintage, a relatively cool year: a vintage that gave us wines that are really charming and approachable when young; the wines are already expressive, fruity, aromatic and tannins smooth and soft.

Suigei Kouiku 54 Junmai Ginjo Sake

By 305|2024-09-23T23:14:45+00:00January 19, 2023|Categories: $20-$30, Japan, Junmai Ginjo, Sake|

The only Sake Brewery in Kochi City . They hope to make sake that is the best to pair with food - sake that is dry, yet with high acidity and umami - using the isolated Tosa Mountain range's pure spring water. This water contains no iron or manganese, which are detrimental elements in sake. The brewery is also quite particular about their ingredients - the rice is polished very carefully, and they use true Kumamoto Yeast. The aroma is modest and vaguely citrusy, and the flavor has a hint of sourness with solid umami, yet the finish is clean and pleasant. Enjoyed best with both Asian and western seafood or fried/fatty dishes.

Clos Saint-Jean Chateauneuf-du-Pape La Combe des Fous 2015

By 305|2024-02-07T15:28:14+00:00January 31, 2023|Categories: $80 And Above, France, Red Wines, Rhone Valley|

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 97 points: "The 2015 reds from these two brothers are some of the gems in the vintage. The 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous is another sensational wine. Full-bodied, gorgeously concentrated and yet with the ever present elegance and finesse this cuvée always possesses, it offers layers of black raspberries, crème de cassis, white flowers, licorice and cured meat-like aromas and flavors. It will certainly be one of the top handful of wines in the vintage."

Pale gold, gold color with green shades. The nose is made of white flesh fruit, candied citrus aromas with a hint of brioche and ginger bread. The mouth associates richness, subtle oak, taste of dried fruit. Pleasantly rich wine.
