Tasting Notes

A shimmering light gold hue introduces a bouquet of crisp green apple, white peach and pear blossom, layered gently with hints of oyster shell, flint and faint alpine herbs. On the palate it’s pure and vertical — elegant citrus-zest acidity meets a silky texture, delivering stone-fruit richness tempered by a cool mineral core and a subtle umami-tinged savoury finish that lingers with finesse and finesse.

Pairings

Takahiko Yoichi Nakai Blanc 2023 pairs beautifully with refined, lightly seasoned dishes that highlight its purity and gentle umami. Think sashimi-grade scallop, tai (sea bream), cold soba with yuzu, steamed clams, or miso-marinated cod. Its crisp acidity and mineral finesse also complement tempura, chawanmushi, and delicately grilled seafood such as squid or prawns. Soft cheeses like Brillat-Savarin or fresh chèvre bring out its silky texture without overpowering its elegance.
