| Description: | Wine Advocate - 92 Points "Clean and pure, the elegant Nv Tatenokawa Juhachi Junmai Daiginjo has a complex bouquet of lychee, peach, mushroom, white rose/jasmine and toasty aromas. Off-dry, but spicy on the palate, it offers a very long, lingering fruity and mineral finish. Rice: Yamada Nishiki. Alcohol: 15.5%.". Rice: Yamada Nishiki. Polishing Rate: 18%. Alcohol: 16-17%. Yamagata Prefecture. Acidity: 1.5. Amino Acid: 1. Flavors: Luscious pear dominates the midpalate in this light, delicate, complex Sake. Extra care has been taken when producing Tatenokawa 18. First the team press this sake using a fune a device that delicately & carefully presses simply under the weight of gravity and then they select only the best 3rd of the pressed brew, the middle third known as nakadori. Nakadori is regarded as the most balanced and nuanced (the first third is a bit brash, the last a bit subdued). This meticulous care and dedication results in a delicious, rare sake of superb complexity & character with delicate acidity and a silky structure. |
