Product description

Among the Koshu grapes handpicked in the Katsunuma region of Yamanashi Prefecture, we carefully selected grapes with high aromatics and a balanced combination of acidity and sugar content, and fermented them in enamel tanks. After the initial notes of Japanese citrus, you will experience refreshing aromas of grapefruit and green apple. It has a soft and smooth attack, gradually dominated by a refreshing acidity that lingers in the mouth. The well-defined acidity gives the wine a sense of depth. This Koshu wine is vibrant yet rounded, offering a lively and fulfilling experience.

Professional Review

"The fresh nose is reminiscent of New Zealand and Australian Rieslings. Slightly bio-like gas nuances. Natural sweetness on the nose, reminiscent of loquat and pawpaw. The palate starts with the freshness of fresh celery and lafrance, followed by the concentration of semi-dried figs and cranberries, and finishes with petrol notes. Enjoy it crisp and chilled."

Pairing Suggestion: Salmon and scallops, sour cream, country-style potatoes with lots of vegetables, oysters with green willow, shellfish sushi.

"The appearance is clear with a bright, pale lemon-yellow color. It has a low viscosity and gives a youthful impression. The intensity of the aroma is moderate. It offers aromas of apple compote, lemon, and Japanese citrus, along with hints of melon, acacia, and floral notes. There are also exotic nuances of coriander and cloves, accompanied by mineral hints of limestone and chalk. The influence of oak barrels is subtle and typical. The initial taste is somewhat weak, with a slightly low sweetness and a dry profile. The linear acidity expands richly, complemented by flavors of yellow peach, mandarin orange, and a touch of bitterness as accents. The alcohol volume is moderate. The finish is short, creating a light and well-balanced wine. It is recommended to serve at a temperature between 10°C and 15°C."

Pairing Suggestion: Katsuo tataki (seared bonito) with myoga (Japanese ginger) and ponzu sauce
