Champ Clair / Guruna Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Barrel Aged 2017 (Red)
Regular Price ¥3,960A blend of Merlot, which gives a sense of softness, and Cabernet Sauvignon, which has a firm structure. Please enjoy the rich fruit flavor and the harmony of the blend. Recommended dish pairing is steamed conger eel with yuzu pepper.
Shan Clair wines generally have a firm acidity. From immediately after opening to the first day, you can enjoy fresh fruit flavors and solid acidity. Around 3 to 5 days after opening, the wine becomes mellow, with rich aromas, and the acidity and astringency blend harmoniously, enriching the taste. Although it varies by individual, it can be enjoyed for about a week.
Please enjoy the wine as it changes with the passage of time.
Also, the recommended dishes are suggested for wine around 4 to 5 days after opening. Compared to generally recommended pairings, red wine goes well with yuzu pepper, sansho, and spicy dishes, while rosé and white wines seem to pair well with Japanese herbs.
It might pair better with sauce-based dishes than with broth- or soy sauce-based ones.
I hope this will be helpful to you.
