Brewed in Niigata prefecture, this sake boasts a rich history and reputation for excellence. In fact, the brewery is so well-known that it has even opened a museum dedicated to showcasing the art and craft of sake-making. And what's more, they're proud to be one of the first breweries to embrace the employment of female sake makers. To honor these skilled women, the brewery has created Wildflower, a tribute to their contribution to the industry. But enough about the backstory – let's talk about the sake itself. When you first pour Wildflowers Junmai Sake, you'll be hit with a delightful bouquet of aromas. Expect notes of lychee, apple, and strawberry, all mingling together to create a truly unique sensory experience. On the palate, you'll find that the sake is both complex and sweet, with just the right amount of acidity to balance it out. So, how should you serve this delicious sake? We recommend chilling it first, as this will enhance its crispness and refreshment. As for food pairings, Wildflowers Junmai Sake is a versatile choice that can go with a range of dishes. Try it as an aperitif before your meal, or pair it with light seafood dishes, salads, or ceviche. It's also a great choice for moderately spicy dishes, as its sweetness and acidity can help balance out the heat.

Kumeu River Village Chardonnay 2022

By |November 22, 2023|Categories: , , , |

Kumeu River Village Chardonnay 2022 is made from grapes grown in Kumeu and Hawkes Bay. It was fermented in a mix of old French oak barriques (33%) and stainless steel tanks (67%). The barrel fermentation adds some richness but little oak flavor, while the tank fermentation allows the vibrant fruit to shine through.The wine has lively lime and lemon aromas, a flinty, mineral edge, and hints of fig and white peach. The 2022 Vintage was another good year, with Hawkes Bay fruit making up 55% of the final blend. The mid-palate is weighty with peachy ripeness and crisp acidity that gives the wine a refreshing, cleansing quality. This wine is enjoyable as an aperitif, and even better when paired with fish and shellfish.
