Second time having this re-release; I’ve come much farther in appreciating this wine. It’s not meant to be part of a lineup - instead to be appreciated for a single meal with great company. Subtly deep secondary notes of leather/sousbois, with a great complement of cherry and balanced tannins. It was balanced enough to make a great paring with Korean yakiniku (and now I’ve got a new fav resto in Fukuoka). — 5 years ago

Just, just... just wonderful.

Initially, I get quince and a slight licorice that isn’t overpowering. Peach, of course.

The intangible here is just the well rounded character of the whole thing. It’s hard to nail down, but it’s got this savory, sweet, umami, bitter, acid quality to it that just brings a sip to the very edge of paradise as a flavor, a taste, an experience.

I’m glad I went for the gold here. I love drinking the canned sake and the 300 mL bottles when I’m going solo, so I upped the ante a bit and went for the mid-tier higher selection and it paid off. — 4 years ago
