96 points, two Double Gold Medals at 2019 the San Francisco International Wine Competition. This is a unique collaboration between former Piper-Heidsieck Master Blender/Cellar Master Regis Camus and the famous Dassai Brewery in Yamaguchi Prefecture. The result is a luxurious junmai daiginjo unlike any other on the market. Mr. Camus has created a sake for the wine aficionado that seeks to highlight the aromatic potential of the ancient fermented rice beverage. He's selected the finest brewers in Japan to create this Franco-Japanese composition and works closely with the brewer to develop a unique expression of using traditional methods. Expect a pungent nose of floral and herbal aromatics, followed by a rich texture and fruit forward palate. Round, rich orchard fruit, and wild red berries balance the floral aromatics perfectly. A sake that can be consumed in place of any fine white wine, from Chenin Blanc to Chardonnay, or with traditional Japanese fare, especially high quality nigiri or sashimi.
