Product details
Gakki Masamune originates from Oki Daikichi Honten in southern Fukushima Prefecture, Japan—a region once barren but now transformed into lush rice paddies.
On the nose and palate, Junjo offers a sophisticated, muscat-like bouquet layered with juicy, fruity sweetness—think vibrant Muscat grapes enriched by delicate grapefruit nuances that bring brightness and balance. Its flavor unfolds with hints of honeydew melon, apricot, lime, and a subtle grapefruit tang, culminating in a clean, refreshing finish with light spritz and crisp acidity. The texture is plush yet invigorating—a “juicy, lush texture” with “medium-full body” and a slightly fizzy tail that lingers enticingly. Pairs exquisitely with sushi, sashimi, and soy-based dishes, where its light sweetness and gentle acidity complement delicate flavors, or with rich salads like burrata drizzled with balsamic.
