Grapes grown in fertile soil that is a mixture of sand and clay are carefully hand-picked and fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks. The wine has a gorgeous aroma of lychee and rose, and a well-balanced harmony of spiciness and moderate sweetness. The firm fruitiness and refreshing acidity tighten the aftertaste, making it a unique wine that goes well with a variety of dishes, including Southeast Asian dishes.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
The rich minerality created by the south-facing granite hills is in perfect harmony with the aromas unique to the variety.

When poured into a glass, the gorgeous aroma of lychee and rose spreads with subtle spice and citrus nuances. The smooth taste is well-balanced with fresh acidity and rich fruitiness, and the aftertaste is delicately sweet and pleasantly spicy.

Pairing
Thai green curry, roasted duck, aged washed cheese
