singing and lyrical: lovely plum and bramble fruits

Very typical for the appellation

NV | Hakkaisan Yukimuro Junmai Daiginjo | Japan 720ml Vino Lopez singing and lyrical: lovely plumThis beautiful Junmai Ginjo is aged for a minimum of 3 years in Hakkai Brewerys snow storage room, called the Yukimuro. The flavor is initially subdued, before it unfolds the rich and solid sake that it is. While nestled comfortably in tanks chilled by literal tons of pure white snow, it develops into a round and smooth sake with a subtle and fine aroma and a mellow, dry finish.
