Yamada Nishiki (Sake)
Filter
A short-grained rice comes from Japan and is used to produce some of the highest quality sake today. Desired by sake brewers, Yamada Nishiki absorbs water and dissolves very easily. Labeled the King of sake rice, Yamada Nishiki is fragrant with a soft, well-blended flavor. Bred in 1923 Yamada Nishiki is truly the most popular rice for sake, and is a cross between Tankanwataribune and Yamadaho. Nishiki rice is usually harvested in the narrow valley of the Tamba Highlands, which are located in the north of the Rokko Mountains. Sake rice is classified into five groups with only three being used for premium sake. The highest class of rice is then divided into two classes. Yamada Nishiki rice has a large grain and a distinctive white core that contains an abundance of starch. This makes it perfect for creating koji mold. Yamada Nishiki produces sake that is characterized as refined and complex increasing its depth of flavor during the aging process. Yamada Nishiki is not easy to cultivate, even though it has favorable features for sake brewing. Farmers must make sure that the roots and stalks are strong enough to support the rice because of its size. Yamada Nishiki grows taller than any other rice.

A very deep purple, red in color. This wine showcases Shiraz with its depth of Barossa Valley and the alluring, aromatic freshness of Eden Valley. Vibrant aromas of dark cherries, anise and red raspberry. A distinctive wine with richness and dark berry, fruit compote palate. Perfectly balanced, elegant and refined.
Enjoy with beef filet, roast beetroot and horseradish, or Korean fried cauliflower.
This blend of Barossa Valley (67%) and Eden Valley fruit hails from five parcels averaging 80 years old, the oldest planted in 1854. Intensely concentrated in hue and muscular flavour. Spicy and mineral to the nose and palate, with glimpses of violets. Its iodine and liquorice-edged black cherry and blueberry flavour is succulent, but still in the grip of the sinewy, charry oak, making for an imposing, slightly austere finish. A powerhouse.

Saturated ruby. Heady aromas of ripe dark berries, cherry liqueur, vanilla and incense, with smoky mineral and exotic spice accents building in the glass. Seamless in texture and deeply concentrated, offering palate-staining black and blue fruit, floral pastille and mocha flavors that turn sweeter with air. At once plush and lively, finishing extremely long and smoky, with repeating dark berry and floral notes and velvety tannins.

El Cortijillo Tempranillo La Mancha is made from 100% Tempranillo
Up front aromas of raspberry and cherry fruit, medium to light weight, Rhône wine in character, cherry fruit flavors, followed by bright acidity. Reminds of a mythical cross between a Pinot Noir and a Côtes-du-Rhône. Pleasant and fun, bistro red.
Made from 30 year old vine.
Delicious with Paella, hamburger or pasta. But also great with grilled vegetables. (bell pepper, eggplant, etc)
