Bijzonder speels en licht voor een Mourvèdre. Van deze druif, die vaak in blends gebruikt wordt om meer kracht en tannine aan de wijn te geven, wordt door Waterkloof een sappige en fruitige wijn gemaakt. In de geur tonen van bloesem, rozenbottel en rood fruit. De smaak is verfijnd, speels en fruitig, heel lang en in de afdronk gekenmerkt door een minerale toon.Karakteristieke wijnen van Waterkloof
In 2004 werd het wijndomein Waterkloof aangekocht door Paul Boutinot. Het domein is gelegen op de Schaapenberg in Somerset West, Stellenbosch op een steenworp afstand van de oceaan. De wijngaarden liggen op 300 meter boven de zeespiegel en profiteert van een uitstekend klimaat. Ze worden gekenmerkt door hun minerale karakter en elegante stijl op het domein wordt volledig Biodynamisch gewerkt. Oorspronkelijk uit Spanje en vernoemd naar de Spaanse stad Murviedro, staat de druifsoort Mourvèdre bekend als de kenmerkende variëteit in de Franse Bandol-regio en wordt het ook gebruikt in de Languedoc en de Zuidelijke Rhône als onderdeel van hun rode melanges. Het is een later rijpende variëteit die geniet van droge, warme en zonnige omstandigheden. Daarom wordt de Mourvèdre bij Waterkloof aangeplant als struikranken om de warmte van de aarde te benutten wanneer de temperaturen in de avond en nacht dalen.De vinificatie van Waterkloof Circumstance Mourvedre
De twee afzonderlijke wijngaardblokken liggen ongeveer vijf kilometer van de zee en zijn aangeplant op een hoogte tussen 270 en 300 meter boven zeeniveau. De bodems zijn van afgebroken granietoorsprong met middelgrote stenen die helpen bij de afwatering. Deze factoren zorgen samen voor lage opbrengsten, evenwichtige druiven en wijnen met een echt gevoel van plaats. Mourvèdre is een van de weinige rassen met voldoende windbestendigheid om als bush-vine op Waterkloof te planten. Druiven worden met de hand geoogst en door paarden naar de kelder gebracht voor handmatige sortering. Trossen worden gesorteerd en gisting van hele trossen gebeurt spontaan met wilde gist in grote open houten fermentoren. Handmatige punch-downs of voetpersen vinden 1 a 2 keer per dag plaats en de wijn wordt 30 dagen op de huid gelaten voordat hij door malolactische gisting gaat in oude 600 liter vaten en vervolgens 16 maanden rijpt in dezelfde vaten. Het resultaat is een typische Mourvèdre met een hoge concentratie fijne tannine en een verrassende lichtheid. Heerlijk!Shipping Notes

Fun aquatic comic romp!
Format: Hardcover
Strange things are happening in Barnacle Bay! When Sashimi comes to shore, grabs a hoodie, and joins Miss Wilcox's classroom, the students ask a lot of questions, but don't get a lot of answers. Joey is assigned to show Shashimi around, but since he is new himself and a target of Billy's bullying, he's reluctant to be seen with a bug eyed student who sweats a lot. This, of course, is how Sashimi, who is really a fish boy, breathes. While he's living in the school and talking to Kevin, the class goldfish, he feels like he should investigate the Beast of Barnacle Bay, since there is a huge festival surrounding the creature. He has a bad experience at a grocery store with some high octane sugar soda and is kicked out after he goes nuts; Billy is there and takes him home to meet his grandfather. Poopdeck Pete is obsessed with the Beast, and gives tours of the bay. Sashimi tells Joey the truth after an incident where Sashimi tries to flush himself down the toilet: he is a fish boy and was chased ashore by Joey's grandfather, and has been living in the school. After meeting with Ben at the local history museum, Sashimi decides to enter the contest to catch the Beast, since there's a $10,000 prize. There is all kinds of drama in the community's participation in this, but in the end, Sashimi donates one of his own scales to the museum, and is rewarded with $500. He donates this money to the school, where budget cuts have been rife, and settles into life in Barnacle Bay. Poopdeck Pete's boat tours experience a resurgence with the interest in the creature, so Joey is happy as well. More adventures, perhaps ones including the very suspiciously damp Ben, are heading to shore.
Santat's illustrations are always a delight, and he brings Sashimi to life in an engaging way. There's even an informational diagram of how Sashimi breathes; of course, there are extra laughs since he is depicted in tighty whities! The use of the hood to hide his more defining aquatic features is inspired, since young readers these days live in hoodies, often (to my chagrin) with the hoods up. Santat must have a deep and abiding interest in the sea, since his 2022 Aquanaut also involves ocean life living on land. Sashimi is much happier and less traumatic than that graphic novel!
Sashimi gets himself involved in many ridiculous situations, which makes this a perfect book for older readers (who pretend to be too sophisticated for jokes about Poopdeck Pete) to read to younger ones. Sashimi gets revenge on Billy in a spitball fight, he has a massive sugar buzz and subsequent crash, and we get snarky but informative inserts about what a poop deck is named that and how Sashimi is able to live on land. The illustration style is colorful and unique, and will appeal to older readers who have been raised on Santat's picture books like Are We There Yet, Beekle, and After the Fall.
Dav Pilkey gets a shout-out in the dedication, which makes perfect sense, since readers of Captain Underpants and Dogman will be thrilled with Sashimi's odd adventures. Santat worked with Tom Angleberger on Princess Pit Stop, and must have absorbed some of Angleberger's Two-Headed Chicken Energy. I'm looking forward to the further adventures of this intrepid fish boy, and hope that he and Joey are able to calm Billy down quite a bit and can continue to support their struggling school.
The box that the publisher sent with the ARC was delightful, and contained a helpful water bottle (so Sashimi can keep breathing), a sticker, poster, and small container of "fish flakes" that I have on good authority actually contains Swedish fish candy!

Things I’d prefer my children not repeat.
Format: Hardcover
My kids found it entertaining, but as a parent I was not thrilled with all the “poop” and “fart” jokes, as well as characters belittling and calling each other “stupid” and “butthead.”

Funny and clever
Format: Hardcover
Sashimi, a fish boy, is trying to find someone just like him. Instead he finds unlikely friends. The book is very funny and clever with just the right sense of humor for kids 2-100.
I won my copy from a Goodreads giveaway. I will be sharing my copy with my grandchildren who will fall in love with Sashimi, too.
