Koshu Wine

When poured into a glass, it sparkles with a pale golden hue. A single sip reveals a crisp acidity and gentle fruit aroma that harmonizes beautifully with Japanese cuisine. The star of Koshu wine is the 'Koshu' grape, a variety native to Japan. It is believed to have been introduced to Japan approximately 1,000 years ago via the Silk Road. In 1877 (Meiji 10), the first private wine company, 'Dai Nippon Yamanashi Wine Company,' was established in the Katsunuma region. That same year, two young men, Masaaki Takano and Tatsunori Tsuchiya, traveled to France to study authentic winemaking techniques before returning to Japan, marking the true beginning of Japanese wine production. Blessed with significant temperature fluctuations between day and night and long hours of sunlight, Katsunuma is one of the birthplaces of Japanese wine. This is a cup of Yamanashi's pride, steeped in history.
