Mimurosugi Junmai Daiginjo “Yamadanishiki”

Description

The nose on this very popularJunmai Daiginjois a wicked collection of Muscat,pear, orange, cake frosting, grapefruit, mango, and a touch of creamaromas. Rich, bright, crisp and very active, this brew plays on manythemes of excellent sake-making from a perfect amount ofastringency, to a kire quick finish with lots of tannin-like drynessamongst the Yamadanishiki fruit tones. Smooth, light in the palate, anda little juicy, look for lychee, strawberry, Asian pear, grape, mango,raisin, and a hint of citrus like lemon water. It is both very complexand very drinkable. As the fluid warms in a wine glass, more acidicattitude presents itself which gives it a very “sushi counter foodfriendly” feel.WORD:ProfessionalWINE:Citrus Reds/Crisp WhitesBEER:Very Crisp AlesFOODS:Sushi, sashimi, clean fare, and Champagne fare.
