Translation from the Producer's Website
"Hiroshima Ginjo Sake was born from the soft water brewing method established by Miura Senzaburo and the rice polishing technology of Satake (Higashihiroshima City), which developed Japan's first powered rice polishing machine. After more than 120 years, Ginjo Sake is opening the door to a new stage. The focus of innovation is on the shape of the rice. From the traditional method of polishing rice into a spherical shape, to a thin, flat polishing (Shingin). The latest rice polishing machine has achieved the same protein reduction rate with 60% polishing as the traditional 40% polishing. Each bottle of directly drawn raw sake is carefully bottle-pasteurized and stored in bottles, preserving the fresh flavor of freshly pressed sake."

Domaine Belargus Quarts Sec
$139.99
Importer Description
"This wine is part of the dry Quarts-de-Chaume trilogy: Veau facing west, Quarts facing south, and Rouères facing east. "Les Quarts" is the original plot which gave its name to the grand cru. Why 'Quarts'? Until the French revolution hacked off all the lords' heads, the Lords of Haute-Guerche who owned this vineyard had to give the Ronceray Abbey "the best quarter of the harvest" and these vineyards produced the finest. Thus the Quarts name was born.
Domaine Belargus is the recently born Domaine of wine visionary Ivan Massonnat, a conglomeration of three retiring estate’s prestigious holdings. Ivan has acquired and consolidated under this banner 24 hectares of millennium old parcels in passionate pursuit of the heart and soul of the Anjou and its bewitching vehicle, Chenin Blanc. This includes no less than 10ha (a quarter!) of the Loire Valley’s only Grand Cru: the famed Quarts-de-Chaume. Several more of the most illustrious monopoles and premier cru’s of Chenin Blanc now live under the Belargus aegis, seeking to capture in one estate and one variety fourteen (and counting) different micro-climates and soils from Savennières to Saint-Lambert du Lattay."
