Hakutsuru Plum Wine

This luxurious plum wine (umeshu) bursts with intense aromas of ripe Japanese plum, cherry blossom, and honey. The palate is rich and velvety, with flavors of plum jam, vanilla, and a touch of almond balanced by bright acidity that earned 91 points for its perfect sweet-tart equilibrium. Made by steeping ume fruit in sake for over a year, it achieves 12% alcohol with just 180g/L residual sugar. Serve over ice as a dessert wine or mix with soda for a refreshing highball. Pair with blue cheese or dark chocolate to create unforgettable flavor combinations.
