 I arrived in Tokyo to a warm reception at Racines, one of Japan's leading purveyors of natural wine. After a bottle of Brut Essentiel from Benoit Lehaye, Yusuko Goda and Masaakii Tsukahara opened a bottle of 2000 Barolo 'Otin Fiorin' from Cappellano. Very pure in it aromas, with raspberry and violets embossed on a bed of liquorice, this wine warms the palate with an old fashioned charm that I admire! Sashimi closed an all too short evening as I had to be up before down to catch a train heading north.
