  March 29, 2024 - Men herremjussingens så fint någonting så dissat kan smaka! Aprikoser och lådor av vita persikor slåss om utrymmet i denna halvsöta njutning från himmelriket! Fantastiskt! Helt underbart! Det här är bra skit! Långt, komplext, vackert, balanserat, fragilt men stabilt och låååångt! Ambrosia! Så outtalbart vackert! som då änglar sjunger, féer dansar och Loki dräper Baldur. Allt fint på samma gång!
  
  Måste studera kanadensisk Vidal mer. Kostar bara spottstyvrar på auktioner här i Japan, så jag må ju skämmas lite för att inte ha engagerat mig tidigare. I fjol plumsade jag ned i min första vidal, ett sönderoxiderast äckelmonster. Men, här pratar vi magi!!!

  Discovering the sheer delight that a Vidal Late Harvest from Canada can offer is akin to uncovering a hidden gem amidst a sea of underestimated treasures. The experience is a revelation, with apricots and boxes of white peaches vying for attention in this semi-sweet indulgence from paradise. The wine is simply exquisite, a testament to the extraordinary potential of the Vidal grape when transformed into a late harvest concoction.
  
  This wine is a symphony of contrasts: long, complex, beautiful, and balanced, it straddles the line between fragility and stability with grace, extending into a finish that seems to linger indefinitely. It is ambrosia for the senses, an indescribably beautiful experience reminiscent of angels singing, fairies dancing, and the mythic tales of Loki and Baldur. It encapsulates all that is wonderful, all at once.
  
  The exploration of Canadian Vidal has been a long time coming, especially considering its surprising affordability at auctions here in Japan. Reflecting on this oversight brings a hint of regret for not having delved into the world of Vidal sooner. My first encounter with a Vidal was last year, with a bottle that had unfortunately succumbed to over-oxidation, a far cry from the magic found in this glass.
  
  The enchantment encapsulated in this late harvest wine compels a deeper investigation into Canadian Vidal. Its ability to surprise and delight, coupled with its accessibility, underscores the hidden potential waiting to be explored. This Vidal Late Harvest is not just a drink; it's a magical journey, a celebration of the extraordinary flavors that the world of wine has to offer.
