exterior
The Izu Shinano Riesling 2023 Sweet is so appealing and satisfying that it could be the centerpiece of a meal on its own. Its pale lemon yellow color with a hint of golden yellow is slightly darker than the dry version, and its alcohol content is a little lower at 11.5%. It has medium viscosity and is easy to drink.
scent
The aroma shares some similarities with dry wines in its attack, but the aroma that unfolds in the background is what makes this wine unique. In addition to the soothing scent of Satsuma mandarins and daisies, there is also a subtle hint of the subtle scent of cherry blossom leaves, like the leaves of a sakura mochi (cherry blossom rice cake). As time passes, the aroma opens up further, revealing an even more pleasant aroma.
Taste
When you put it in your mouth, you are immediately hit with a rich, full-bodied sweetness, followed by a firm acidity that creates a surprisingly clean finish. The clean, unobtrusive finish is proof that the sweetness and acidity are perfectly balanced. While dry wines have an equal amount of acidity and sweetness that lingers, with the acidity tightening at the end, this sweet wine has a rich sweetness, and then the acidity and sweetness settle in just enough, leaving a pleasant acidity in the finish. This exquisite balance is what makes this wine so satisfying.

Frequently asked questions
If the front label says "Izu Wine," it means that "the grapes used to make the wine were grown and harvested in the Izu region, " and " the wine was brewed using those grapes at a winery in the Izu region ."

Neutral :
It has a neutral positioning, with a "modest sweetness (hard to detect)." It has almost no sweetness in terms of sugar content, giving it a refreshing impression.
Dry :
This wine has a drier impression . Rather than being "dry," it has a nuance of being " crisp " or " clean in the mouth ." After drinking it, you may feel a refreshing, light dryness in your mouth.
The "body" of a wine refers to the strength, weight, and satisfying taste of the wine . It also includes what sommeliers call the "texture," or the " feel " when you put it in your mouth.
Light Body:
It's light and easy to drink.
Full Body:
