2012 Lilian Ladouys

Lunar New Year's Day dinner at home in Taipei.

2012 Lilian Ladouys - nose of black fruits, cassis, definitely some oak, and a little leather. Good acidity balance.

Dewazakura Eto-Bottle Junmai Daiginjo Genshu, 2024 (出羽桜　干支ボトル  純米大吟醸 原酒 2024) - seimaibuai of 50%. Rounded on the palate but the finish was a little sharper. Nose was rather subdued but the aromatics developed whle in the mouth.
