Takasago Ginga Shizuku Divine Droplets Sake (720ML) – Junmai-Daiginjo Sake

admin — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 03:00:05 +0000

Takasago Ginga Shizuku Divine Droplets Sake (720ML) – Junmai-Daiginjo Sake A prominent fragrance, a clean and fresh taste, with flavor deep into the recesses. Truly one of the “Rolls-Royces” of saké.

Each year, after the temperature drops below 14 Fahrenheit, Takasago builds an Ice Dome outside the main kura building. It is an igloo inside of which the temperature stays about 28 F, with 90% humidity and no wind The low temperature means “nasty bacteria” cannot survive, allowing them to make clean, pure, ultra-premium saké. Additionally, they separate the clear saké from the fermenting rice lees not by pressing, but rather by putting it into canvas bags and allowing the saké to drip out slowly overnight.

Joseph Phelps 2009 Eisrebe (375ML half-bottle) – Dessert Wine

admin — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 00:00:54 +0000

Joseph Phelps 2009 Eisrebe (375ML half-bottle) – Dessert Wine In 1994, the desire to produce an “ice wine,” or Eiswein, as it is called in Germany, prompted us to adopt an innovative program whereby Scheurebe grapes would be picked late in the season and then commercially frozen, thus concentrating their already-high sugar levels. We called the wine “Eisrébe.”

Although German Eisweins are produced from fruit that is actually picked frozen from the vine, we found that by freezing the grapes ourselves we could fashion a delicious dessert wine that is viscous and smooth, with excellent acidity to balance the sweetness.

The 2009 Scheurebe has delicate aromas of apricot, citrus blossom, honey, and crème caramel followed by a rich and unctuous texture integrated with well balanced, bright acidity and a persistent finish.

Grape & Source: 100% Scheurebe from our home ranch in Spring Valley outside of St. Helena in Napa Valley.

Neige Apple Ice Wine (375ML half-bottle) – Fruit Wine Dessert Wine

admin — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 01:00:12 +0000

Neige Apple Ice Wine (375ML half-bottle) – Fruit Wine Dessert Wine Neige (which means snow) is made from apples harvested in the fall and pressed at Christmas time. Their juice is then kept outside in the freezing winter cold, in order to naturally separate the sugar from the water through the process known as cryo-concentration. This is the way we then obtain our precious syrup, which we let slowly ferment over a period of 6 to 7 months.

The color is a golden yellow with light reflections. On the nose it is pure and clean, the aroma of freshly-picked ripe apple with striking intensity. On the palate it’s a crisp, flavourful attack. A perfect balance of sugar and acidity. Perfect as an aperitif or to accompany sharp cheese (Cheddar or goat) or veined cheese (blue), and desserts. Serve chilled.
