Discover the grape variety: Koshu

Delicate, taut whites with a pale, slightly pinkish robe (grey-pink skin), an airy palate and fresh acidity, with subtle aromas of citrus (yuzu, grapefruit), green apple, white flowers, pear, almond and saline mineral notes. Slightly bitter, refined finish. Signature of the modern whites of Yamanashi (around Mount Fuji) and the locomotive of Japanese wine exports. Autochthonous hybrid variety (vinifera × vitis amurensis), cultivated in Japan for over a thousand years.

The wine region of Yamanashi-ken

Japanese winemaking heart at the foot of Mount Fuji, signature in Koshu. Identity-driven native white (~90% of Japanese plantings): delicate, precise dry whites with notes of citrus (yuzu, lime), green apple, white flowers and a slightly saline finish, low alcohol and great freshness. Ideal with sushi and Japanese cuisine. Also Chardonnay and Merlot in the altitude zones of Akeno.

The word of the wine: Concentrate

Said of a wine that is rich in all its components (sugars in sweet wines, tannins in red wines, aromatic compounds) and that leaves an impression of density, intensity and depth.
