Feb.04
Fortunately, My fever was gone after I had a good night's sleep.


I came to Katsunuma in order to have a chair of wine seminar organized by Koshu City Government.

It was a so fine and cold day.
The event was hold at Katsunuma Budo-no-Oka, a visitor center and city hall in Katsunuma.

At fisrt, we had a staff meeting.
At the first lecture, Mr. Yoshino talked about Koshu wine in general, who is the chief editor of WANDS, one of the oldest wine magazine in Japan.
I was in charge of the second lecture and led the wine tasting with Mr.Ajimura, who is the chief winemaker of Chateau Mercian.
I talked about many episodes that many western wine professionals met and drank Koshu wine.
I also offered the attendants tasting Cave de Re-Lax imported wines.
They were seemed to be impressed in the event very much.

After the event, we went to "Milleprintemps", a fine French restaurant in Katsunuma and had a "job well done" party.
We also enjoyed Koshu wine again.

It was a really interesting experience for me.
Thank you very much!
