Chill the bottle below 14℃ thoroughly in an upright position before opening it and uncork it with the bottle at an angle. May spill at high temperatures.
Tasting notes
Made from 100% high-quality European wine grapes (vinifera) grown in our own organically certified field in Kondo, Niseko Town, at the southwest foot of Mt. Yotei. A very delicate wine with a rich aroma, elegant and refreshing green apple aroma and clean acidity. Clear, fine bubbles last for a long time. Alcohol content: 12.5%
Food pairing
Pairs well with many foods, including seafood, cheese (example: brie and camembert), foie gras, hearty dishes such as fried chicken or fish, macaroni and cheese. Also works well with sushi and sashimi as well as caviar. Steak, especially a ribeye or New York strip, and lamb are also good pairing choices.
Winemaking
The sediment (residue of yeast after fermentation) generated during the secondary fermentation and aging in the bottle for about 15 months is collected at the top of the bottle by remiage (a process known as moving the bottle, in which the bottle is rotated by 1/4 angle twice a day for a month), and then completely removed by disgorging (removing the sediment), which involves freezing and spraying the collected sediment
