More Reviews

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Higashiyama Shuzo’s philosophy is based around Zen Buddhism, especially the idea that beauty in the arts should be as simple and pure as a strand of pearls. Clear. Aromas of banana custard and praline follow through on a supple, silky entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body with excellent smoothness and integration of flavors. Finishes with nice interplay of spice, dried apples and bananas, toffee, and earth notes. A rich, flavorful daiginjo that will shine at the table. Exceptional. Score: 93 Source: Tastings.com
