December 31, 2023 - Day 1 - the color is deep gold/straw with some touch of amber/copper like hojicha brown tea. The nose is osmanthus/fragrant olive flower, hawthorn, kumquat, sandalwood, cedar bark, and mirin - although the composition is totally different, there is something Pinot-esquie about the way the fragrant nose hits the highest key and change its nuances every seconds. The mouth is almost Chinese shaoxing rice wine like combination of intense and mellow/pure. I can totally see why the producer said it works even at 60c serving temperature like a heated sake. A lot more to be uncovered.
Day 2-7 - the color turned into deeper shiny amber. additional notes of kabocha squash, maple syrup/caramel, and brandy. Staying consistent and dense, no sign of decline, massive energy. Versatile in food paring, but it was particularly heavenly with seafood Okonomiyaki pancake. -

December 20, 2023 - This wine won “Geeky Wine of the Night”… drank it with a 2005 Cos d’Estournel and a 2011 Clos Rougeard Le Bourg, and this wine totally held it’s own in terms of complexity and character.
It smells like it’s going to be a sweet wine, like an aged Sauternes, but then it’s bone dry and laser focused, unlike many orange wines I’ve tasted.
Will try again! -

December 3, 2023 - First bottle of the night oxidized, second better. Last sip was most evolved. Give this some time to breathe. Still not as good as my first experience with this wine, but may be a provenance issue. Still recommend for a unique experience.

October 27, 2023 - Surprised to the upside. Elegant and integrated. Not overwhelmingly "orange".
