Kun-shu — aromatic and light

About
A gentle, refreshing sweetness accompanies a soft acidity, and a subtle astringency arrives beautifully on the finish. The short aftertaste is so smooth that you may forget you are drinking alcohol. Paired with refreshing dishes such as a citrus-accented seafood marinade, it adds floral aromatics and sweetness that further enhance the food. Enjoy well chilled (0 to 5°C) in a wine glass or similar.
