Kokuryu and Vincent Girardin

Dinner at Mihanhonke in Taipei.

Kokuryu Daiginjo Shizuku (黒龍 大吟醸 しずく) - nose of banana and tropical fruits, and obvious fermented rice notes.  Sweet mid-palate but with a little spicy finish.

2005 Vincent Girardin Corton-Charlemagne - mineral, toast, lemon and butter.  Very ripe, tart and bitter on the finish.
