Pour from a 720 ml bottle. Oily, rich rice nose, vanilla, nutty. Rich and smooth, sweet rice and vanilla notes. Simple but yes, rather rich and shows umami.

720 ml bottle. Clear, oily, only slightly yellowish. Fruity, acidic nose: citrus, apples, pear, cherry, rice, a touch of caramel. Acidic flavor, very fruity, with storng sweet and sour aspect as well. Cherries, oranges, melon. Wow, lots of flavor. Very rich and full-bodied. Actually a bit too full bodied. After rating, it was nicer to drink with some ice in it!
