Domaine Nakajima Petillant Blanc 2023
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Delaware from Yamagaa, Japan
Taste Profile: Refreshing aroma of pineapple and sweet Watson pomelo. Crisp bubble with bitterness of citrus fruits such as lime and grapefruits. Pronounced acidity is well-balanced with calm melon flavour. Easy to drink. Before opening the bottle, chill the wine in the fridge standing for at least half a day and let the lees fall to the bottom of the bottle. After opening the bottle, wait for the lees to rise with bubbles from the bottom of the bottle before pouring, so that you can also taste the umami of the lees. If the lees do not rise, try turning the bottle with the mouth pointing upwards to mix the lees before drinking.
Winemaking Process: Delaware, originally from the USA and one of the popular table grapes in Japan, were dried in the shade for a few days to a few weeks, depending on the condition of the grapes. The flavour was concentrated and the ripe, sweet aroma was intensified. The rotten fruit was then carefully removed, lightly crushed with a self-made hand crusher and further moderately crushed with boots. Then the crushed grapes were pressed manually with a basket press over a period of half a day to one day, and then placed in a resin tank, where spontaneous fermentation began at room temperature and the alcoholic fermentation continued for approximately 10 days.
As soon as it finished, it was bottled and the same grape juice was added at that time. About a month later, the fermentation finished and the carbon dioxide produced by the yeast remained in the bottle. No racking in order to allow the tastes of the lees to be enjoyed.
