ABOUT TSURUNOE:
Tsurunoe is a very traditional, small brewery founded in 1794. It was originally intended for making miso and soy sauce. The water is classically soft, and they use only locally grown rice. The reflection of their technique is to brew a sake that begins with a big mouthfeel, that lasts long and slowly, beautifully, fading away in the mouth. Aizu Chushou sake are aged, blending older sake with newer sake; the aging process allowing the sake to become more sweet and flavorful.

Ottella Lugana DOC Le Creete is made from 100% Trebbiano di Lugana (same as Verdicchio)
The grapes for this wine come from the estate vineyards in San Benedetto di Lugana.
Golden, warm, intense straw yellow. Exotic notes of pineapple and grapefruit with delicate minerality.
Finesse yet a strong character. Rich and well balanced, firm, mineral wine with a superb pulp.
Pairs best with sea or lake fish to bring out its outstanding features; goes well with white meat and soup, and has quite a surprising affinity with full-flavored and blue cheeses.
