Gozenshu is a fermented rice wine, the top of the tops for the Nihon Shu, reserved only for the Lords of feudal Japan. It is the very 'essence' of Nihon shu, representing only 8 % of the must placed in the extractor. It is both light and strong, with a character of its own.
Very pale yellow in colour. The nose captures your attention immediatley. The aroma is subtle and discreet and the first nose very distinguished (elegant discretion). You'll distinguish white fruitn peach skin, green aniseed, slightly caramelised qugar accents. The grain fineness and texture complexity is surprising to taste. A beautiful balance between bitterness (beautiful and noble) and acidity. Bitterness, acidity and sweetness are combined in a perfect balance. A slightly spicy, peppery end, almost of the south. This Gozenshu will remind you of a very good Meursault. Very limpid and fluid in the mouth, beautiful balance, harmony, an exceptional staying power. Mineral, not so sweet, slight Champagne notes.
