Kimura Glass: A Tasting Seminar to Enjoy Wine and Glass Pairings No.2
Slender and light, the pleasure of using these glasses defies explanation.
This will be the second seminar to enjoy natural wine and glass pairings using glassware from "Kimura Glass," a brand renowned by culinary professionals.
This seminar will be lead by Hirotaka Meguro from Sendai Prefecture winery "Fattoria AL FIORE" and Yu Nakao of "VIRTUS Wine" (now establishing its head office in Yanaka, Taito Ward).
Wines to perfectly complement each will be sourced from AL FIORE, selected by the Mr.Meguro and Mr.Nakao. This is a unique opportunity to inquire and learn about the stories and emotions behind the cultivation and production of wine. We welcome you to enjoy the delicious differences in flavor and texture of each wine as we taste them from various glasses.
In addition, Bistro NOHGA will be preparing a course dinner for participants of this seminar. Come enjoy pairing a natural wine with the accentuated flavors of the natural ingredients of our dishes.
*Actual menu may vary
Each seminar participant will receive a 15oz "Piccolo" wine glass, a Kimura Glass piece also used at Bistro NOHGA.
On the previous Sunday, January 20th, Yutaro Kimura of "Kimura Glass" (creator of wine glasses featured at NOHGA HOTEL), Yu Nakao of "VIRTUS Wine" (now establishing its head office in Yanaka) and Naoki Yamada of Shiga Prefecture's "Hitomi Winery" will host the first seminar.（See details from here）。We hope you will join us for this unique opportunity.
