Yet again a great match for Sakana with Hsing/Mimi but this time Vollenweider provided good competition. The Omakase was same as last time, last day of the monthly menu so a good comp. Thought the food was actually a bit off compared to previous time but still what a great combo with the wines. — 3 years ago
After at least 8 weeks without alcohol (sorry to all my fans lol), I had to break my fast on my anniversary with at least a glass. Unfortunately, not a standout wine. I believe I had good luck with the 2015 and or 2016 vintages of this, but here... A blast of sour red cherries on the nose and palate, candied. Super astringent, bitter.
The good news is that for 19.years I have been married to a woman who has always been my champion, has always wanted the best for me, and has stuck with me through a lot of ups and downs, including wine. Thanks Mimi, I love you baby...
Consider this your card 😅

Paid $32 for a bottle at total wine. Same house as the wine we had at Quaglino’s Restaurant, but a different Sancerre. Mimi enjoyed this bottle. Clean, crisp, exciting! Would get again. — 3 years ago

Celebrating Moldova independence day. And that's a bottle for this occasion. Mature bouquet of prune, fig, chocolate, licorice, dried cherry, sweet tobacco, coffee, vanilla and clove. Powerful, kind of new world style, oaky, straightforward and not complex, but tasty mature wine.

Drinking with mimi niclas timur tove and vivi. Nice blend. Makes me feel like I’m in Italy. Red white blend ? Going into orange territory. We’re about to go to liu noodles. Great value for money — 3 years ago
Mimi paid $29 for the bottle at Boston Wine Exchange on Devonshire. A nice, full, rich, dry, smooth Cabernet. Worth repeating when I need a $30 bottle. A step up from the usual $15 red. — 3 years ago

It was outstanding. Had this with Mimi, Fatima and Fati at La Voile on Newbury Street. Paid over $100 for the bottle, but it was well worth it.  — 7 months ago
