Contributes colour, structure and aromatic freshness to great Médoc blends (Palmer, Léoville-Las Cases) where it remains a minority.

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: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
