Hakurakusei Junmai Daiginjo

Description

A Daiginjo that emphasizes flavor from rice rather than relying on excessive aromas or sweetness. It features a pleasant aroma reminiscent of pineapple and muscat, complemented by a refreshing citrus-like acidity that enhances its crispness. The aroma and flavor evoke notes of banana and melon, creating a delightful sensation, followed by a fresh burst of pineapple on the palate. The finish is gently sweet, wrapped in a refreshing acidity that lingers softly. Best enjoyed lightly chilled in a wine glass.
