A refreshing aroma gently evocative of melon and green grapes.
A gentle bubbly effervescence on sipping which accentuates the delicate texture and rich, juicy fruitiness of this sake. The flavours of white peaches and melon are well balanced by a clean, sharp acidity on the finish.
Food matches – seafood, lobster, scampi, Moreton Bay bugs and prawns. Grilled flounder, pan -fried Blue Eye, poached chicken. Soft cheeses – Camembert, Brie, Ricotta and mild creamy blue cheese. Fresh fruit – melon, watermelon, fresh ripe stone fruit and grapes.
Serve chilled. Take care on opening as this bottle will “pop” due to the retained carbon dioxide in the sake.
Store in a cool, dark place. After opening keep refrigerated. The natural effervescence will dissipate within hours of opening.
