Product details
- Primary Bouquet: Highly delicate and fragrant, leading with a mix of fresh white flowers, jasmine, and wild anise.
- Fruit Elements: Subtle, clean undertones of crisp green apple, underripe pear, and fresh fennel emerge as it sits in the glass.
Palate & Structural Texture
- Mouthfeel: Exceptionally smooth, light-bodied, and soft on the entry.
- Taste Profile: Delicate, dry, and fragrant showcasing subtle notes of winter melon, stone fruits, and a hint of white pepper. The palate leans into lean minerals and gentle tree fruits like white peach, completely avoiding any heavy or cloying sweetness.
- Acidity & Dryness: With a high Sake Meter Value (SMV) of +7, the dryness is sharp and upfront, beautifully balanced by a soft, melting-snow water texture.
The Finish
- Length: Short to medium, designed to cleanse the palate quickly.
- Character: Culminating in a silky, lingering mouthfeel with a beautifully clean, snappy, and refreshing. It leaves a tiny, pleasant trace of licorice and mineral crispness.
