Hokkaido Wine

Château Grand Mayne

Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Still plenty of fruit. Tannins softening nicely. Fabulous with the A4 Hokkaido wagyu ribeye. — 8 days ago

Domaine Takahiko Soga

Nana-Tsu-Mori Pinot Noir 2021

Believe the hype. A big sweaty vegetal savory note- celery?? chartreuse?? - cloaked in velvet. Something Burgundian yet totally sui generis. Fabulous texture, seductive nose. Thanks to @Geoff Franz — 9 months ago

Château Milens

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Hmmmm...dried prunes, touch of currant and ripe red berries with a sublime undercurrent of grassy earth and forest-y shit. Ate some Hokkaido uni with it. Would eat a whole goddamn tray with a bottle....wait sounds like my weekend plan! — 4 years ago

Fukagawa Winery

Hokkaido Sparkling White Blend 2022

Light white wine from Japan from Hokkaido, the bouquet is citrus, green grapes skins. The pallet is citrus ponzu, and grape pulp forward, yet light and delicate. Well balance acidity. El — 6 months ago

Benanti

Pietra Marina Etna Bianco Superiore Carricante 2017

Great sea spray salinity with a bit of bite at first. Leaving the bottle to warm up and take some air gave it a rounder edge. Enjoyed with Hokkaido scallop and osetra caviar, and then a Cesar with boquerones. Tasty! — 10 months ago
