This producer was one of my early red burgundy favorites. Nice production & price value.

For tonight’s dinner, perfect. It was light enough on its feet that it didn’t overpower the Matsusakagyu A-5. It blended perfectly…an even tug of war of Waygu & wine and we had 10 different styles of Wagyu.

Cabernet, Malbec etc. would have overpowered this Wagyu.
