Chan Clair / Gruna Yama Sauvignon Merlot Barrel Aged 2019 (Red)

We produced Yama Sauvignon and Merlot from Hokuto City Akeno Town, grown in a scenic vineyard at 700m elevation boasting one of Japan's longest hours of sunlight, nurtured by the shining sun and refreshing breeze.
We blended Yama Sauvignon, which has a wild atmosphere, with smooth Merlot. Please enjoy the rich fruit flavors and the exquisite harmony of the blend.


Chan Clair wines generally have a firm acidity. From immediately after opening to the first day, you can feel fresh fruit flavors and solid acidity. Around the 3rd to 5th day after opening, the wine becomes mellow, with rich aromas, and acidity and astringency blend harmoniously, making the taste richer. 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 the 4th to 5th day after opening. Compared to dishes generally said to pair well, red wine seems to go well with yuzu pepper, sansho, and spice-based 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.
