Product details
Minanogawa Junmai Ginjo Muroka reflects a bold and expressive style shaped by the character of its carefully selected rice and water. The Muroka presentation preserves the product’s natural character without relying on heavy clarification, allowing the underlying qualities of the ingredients to remain more pronounced. Its hearty profile combines substance with a refreshing fruit-like sweetness, while gradual changes in temperature reveal additional depth and allow the character of the rice and water to become increasingly apparent. This balance of richness, freshness, and ingredient-driven character gives Minanogawa a distinctive and versatile profile.
The palate opens with refreshing fruit-like sweetness supported by a firm, full-bodied character, followed by a fine and lingering finish. As the temperature gradually rises, the flavors become more expressive, revealing greater depth while highlighting the quality of the rice and water. Its combination of refreshing sweetness and substantial character pairs naturally with seafood, cioppino with crusty bread, paella, and chicken Alfredo.
