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: N-M

Negociant-manipulant. Company that buys grapes, sometimes in addition to its own vineyard, elaborates and markets its champagne. Most of the big brands like Moët or Taittinger are N-M.
