The wine has a medium-yellow color with a slight greenish tinge. The nose offers white peach, lemon, minerals, nuts, and a hint of vanilla.
On the palate, lively acidity makes an immediate impression. The fruit is rich but never heavy, while the crisp acidity keeps the wine fresh and vibrant throughout. Oak flavors are not particularly noticeable (I briefly checked how the wine was aged, but couldn't find clear information), and I particularly like its pronounced minerality.
At its current price of ¥5,000, it is difficult to praise it without reservation, but there is no doubt that this is a fine wine. I would like to try other cuvées and vintages from this producer if I get the chance.
Update: On the third day, after leaving the wine in a light-protected bottle for a day, its vibrant fruit had faded somewhat. In its place, vanilla notes came to the fore, and the texture had become smoother.
