Morishima Yamada Nishiki Junmai Ginjo "Modern Classic"

The nose on this new world Junmai Ginjo is a slick collection of grapefruit, pear, stone fruit, white strawberry, green apple, orange sherbet, mineral water, lemon cake, milk candy, Skittles, and Pixy Stix aromas. Slippery, silky, soft, slightly effervescent, bright, light, zesty, and off-dry, this sake is a wine-drinker's brew that has a plump acidity and a little bit of astringency. Look for lemon-lime, grapefruit, white pepper, lemon peel, mineral water, nectarine, Granny Smith, butter cream, and angel food cake flavors that are lifted on a bright and semi-tingly flow. Made for “new world” aka wine drinkers using a white wine glass. WORD: Bright WINE: Zesty Reds/Expressive Whites BEER: Zesty Ales FOODS: Sushi, sashimi, yakitori, grilled meats & fowl, shrimp, crab, lobster, oysters, white fish carpaccio, grilled veggies, and white cream pastas.
