Kinoene “Haruzake Kanbashi”
Chiba prefecture
Breath of spring
Like a gentle yet invigorating spring breeze, this seasonal junmai daiginjo tingles the taste buds with a light, clear acidity. Be whisked away by aromas of green apple and muscat grape, followed by melon and honey on the palate. The cherry blossom petals on the bottle design encourage you to enjoy this nectar alfresco as you watch new flowers bloom. Pair it with fresh fare such as seafood carpaccio or caprese salad.
