While the élevage (aging) requires a lengthy three years, Sébastien explains: \"When zero-SO2 wines degrade rapidly or develop off-flavors after bottling, it is because they were bottled and shipped before reaching natural stability.\" By dedicating an extraordinary amount of time—nearly unheard of for standard wines—Sébastien Riffault's wines achieve profound complexity, harmony, and lasting stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eUnlike any Sancerre you have tasted before, but by far the best.

The tsuyukusa plant was once a common sight along roadsides during the warmer months. In ancient times, it was known as tsukikusa. Since the era of the Manyoshu (Japan's oldest poetry anthology), it has been prized as a textile dye and frequently celebrated in classic literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKimonos dyed with tsukikusa were notorious for fading easily when washed. Because of this, they often appeared in ancient poems as a moving metaphor for changing hearts or the fleeting, transient nature of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnowing this rich history, what kind of flavor do you imagine? And for those of you who have already tasted it, how did it strike you?In Kakurei’s new series, “Fūmi Zekka,” each sake is given the name of a traditional Japanese color that reflects its unique flavor profile and overall concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonestly, my own impression of this sake was quite different from the imagery suggested by the delicate flower. While the vibrant color of the label beautifully evokes a sense of summer coolness, the actual taste felt entirely removed from the gentle atmosphere of the tsuyukusa. Perhaps this contrast reflects my own limited understanding of the hue, or even of flavor profiles themselves—or perhaps the brewery has a brilliant, hidden intention behind this sake. In any case, pondering these endless possibilities is half the fun, isn’t it? We look forward to hearing your feedback as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sake is brewed using Miyama-Nishiki rice. The label is marked “R7BY” and “Super Dry.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vinetsake.wordpress.com\/category\/sake\/kakurei-bokushi-yukiotoko-%e9%b6%b4%e9%bd%a2%e3%83%bb%e7%89%a7%e4%b9%8b%e3%83%bb%e9%9b%aa%e7%94%b7%ef%bc%88%e9%9d%92%e6%9c%a8%e9%85%92%e9%80%a0%ef%bc%89\/\" title=\"鶴齢 青木酒造 Kakurei\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u0026gt;Read more stories at the News Archive\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/kakurei_TSUYUKUSAIRO_banner_01_490x735_d5f888aa-be33-4460-bd19-718408c5cb22.jpg?v=1786353854\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vin et Saké Nature","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49619711262948,"sku":"T04150006EAS000A","price":440.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/A831_kakurei_TSUYUKUSAIRO_735x735_01.jpg?v=1786356011"},{"product_id":"b681-etienne-calsac-champagne-les-revenants-750ml","title":"[B681] ETIENNE CALSAC CHAMPAGNE LES REVENANTS (2023) 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChampagne Etienne Calsac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBased in Avize, a prestigious village in the Côte des Blancs, Etienne Calsac is one of the most exciting young growers (Récoltant-Manipulant) in modern Champagne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince taking over his grandparents' vineyards in 2010, Calsac has transformed the family estate by championing organic viticulture, biodiversity, and minimal intervention in the cellar.
