Kura no Hana (Sake)
Filter
Kura no hana is a relatively new strain of rice that produces light and rounded sakes. Translating to Flower of the Brewery or fair maiden, Kura no hana began development over 20 years ago. Just as wine producers work to grow new varieties of grapes, brewers in Japan strive to develop new strains of rice. The results were a brewing rice that produces an elegant sake with an aroma that complements food. Kura no hana is an almost transparently light sake that produces natural sweetness. The delicious aroma features a faint touch of anise making it a wonderful companion to light seafood dishes and salads. With that being said, it is also a wonderful stand-alone sake. Hoyo Kura or No Hana Flower of the Brewery and Junmai Daiginjo Sake is a complex brew with a licorice perfume featuring notes of sweet caramel and earthy mushroom. The high aroma profile is delicate and light with a full floral aroma and flavor. Debuting in 2000, about 55% of the Kura no hana rice is polished away. This delicious sake pours with a clear golden body with strong legs. Flavors of lychee, koji, and peach are accompanied by rosewater aromas.

In our exploration of the North Coast wine region, we found the sandy loam soils of the Russian River AVA to offer the best Pinots with balanced, natural acidity and richness on the palate. Our Outerbound Pinot Noir opens with layered aromas of ripe red cherry, pomegranate and cola fruits on the nose, with flavors of juicy strawberry and rhubarb pie carried through the wine’s lingering dusty tannic finish.
Review:
A good backbone of moderate tannins and tangy acidity supports vivid black cherry, red cherry and black-tea flavors in this medium-bodied, energized wine. It has a focused, slightly lean expression that makes the mouth water for more. Best through 2030. Jim Gordon

Gentilhommes Macon-Peronne is made from 100 percent Chardonnay.
A gentilhomme is a gentleman characterized by his delicacy, thoughtfulness, and courtesy. "Les Gentilhommes" was created by brothers Richard and Stephane Martin as brand embodying the gentleman's character combined with Burgundian know-how.
From the work in the vineyard to the vinification in barrel, they are inspired to share these noble values. Quality, authenticity and long family tradition are the foundation of these wines.
This single-vineyard Chardonnay is produced in the village of Péronne, in the heart of the Maconnais region in Burgundy, from 40 year-old vines planted on the limestone based soils of the Mount Epin.
A beautiful golden color with green reflections, delicate toasty notes and attractive aromas of citrus and ripe summer fruits combine with floral and honey nuances that are typical of the old vines.
Fresh, ample and full-bodied on the palate, the wine is perfect by itself as an aperitif and delicious during the meal.
