Gin no Sei (Sake)
Filter
Gin no Sei is a rice type that is used to create sake wine. Many different brands feature the Gin No Sei rice variety and it is used in a handful of various sake wines. The sakes that use the Gin No Sei rice variety are typically crafted in the Akita prefecture. Since the methods of sake brewing are ever-changing, these changes have allowed sake to be produced in new ways, thus increasing the quality of sake. Although the Timeless Wines Koshiki Junzukuri wine sticks to the label of brewing sake the old fashioned way, many breweries are choosing to adapt to new methods. The Akitabare brewery crafts sakes the old fashioned way and their sakes typically cater to sake lovers and experienced wine drinkers. These wines are aromatic and have a very unique taste, since they have been crafted according to tradition. The Amanoto wine from the Asamai Shuzo brewery also is brewed in the Akita prefecture, along with Dewatsuru Sakura Emaki, Manabito, Yuki no Bosha, and Beni Mansaku sake wines. Each one of these sake wines has a unique and distinct taste due to different brewing methods, but the wines have been crafted from the Gin no Sei rice type.

Podere Grattamacco Bolgheri Superiore is made from 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 15% Sangiovese.
#12 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2022
The olfactory impact is of considerable aromatic intensity: it expands with notes of small, fully ripe red fruits, accompanied by clear balsamic and Mediterranean hints. In progression, typical mineral notes develop. The gustatory impact is austere, of remarkable freshness and of large volume. It develops in a balanced fusion between the broad minerality and the fine and enveloping tannins. Everything is found in the long final persistence that foreshadows a long life ahead.
Goes well with game, as e.g. local preparations of wild boar, roast, braised and stewed red meats, and medium aged cheese.
Review:
Dense and smooth, featuring black cherry, blackberry, plum, iron, licorice and menthol aromas and flavors. Fresh and featuring a spine of tannins, this finishes on the compact side for now. Shows balance, so be patient. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese. Best from 2025.
-Wine Spectator 97 Points
The 2019 Bolgheri Superiore Grattamacco (a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 15% Sangiovese) is a real beauty and shows very nicely today based on advancing vine age alone. Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah vines show great results after seven years, whereas Merlot and Sangiovese vines need a few more years before they start to show that extra degree of complexity, the winemaking team tells me. This is a complete and beautifully balanced wine that shows soft extraction and especially sweet tannins. It fermented in truncated conical oak vats and finished in barrique for 18 months.

Clear yellow color.
Aromas of white flowers, honeysuckle, leme tree and dried fruits.
The palate is rich and balanced, with good acidity and nice minerality.
Good length to the finish, pair with fish in creamy sauce, white meats and fine cheeses.
