Natsu
A comparison of different types of wine: Shinsei No.6 X-type Direct Path, Jyushidai Nanadaru Nijukan, Sanndo Homasu Roku Nojo, and a port wine from the 1982 vintage.
The X dp has a delicate acidity typical of Shinsei with a herbaceous nuance characteristic of X-type wines. The X dp has a mild sweetness reminiscent of milk candy added to it, giving it softness and depth.
Shichidaruni-Nijukan stands out for its transparency and sense of harmony, as is typical of Fukuro-hozuri shizukusake. It is beautiful and free of any cloying taste, and one senses a high degree of perfection.
San-do Homasu Roku-no Jo is our favorite San-do of the 2024BY. It has a pleasantly clear lactic acidity and an impressive structure that pushes up the umami and sweetness.
The 1982 Port wine we drank as a comparison was just as sweet, deep, and brilliant. A glass of this wine is like tasting the time of maturity itself.
The comparison of different genres of wine made each wine's individuality more vividly felt.
