Tasting Notes:

Bright, clear, pale lemon yellow with a green tinge. On the nose was an impression of youth, with primary aromas of green apple, white peach, white fig leaves and white pepper. Smooth on the palate, dry, refreshing acidity, with a tint of gentle fruity sweetness, all well-integrated together. A cool, fresh, refreshing transparent wine. (Tasting notes by Katsunori Kaneko.)

Grace Koshu Kayagatake

From 2002, Grace Koshu series started utilising grapes from special parcels of the Toriibira and Hishiyama vineyards, vinified in small batches. From 2007, the same practices were applied to grapes from the vineyards at the foot of the Kayagatake mountains in the northwest of Yamanashi, producing a wine with different characters compared to wines from the Katsunuma area.

Tasting Notes:

Bright, transparent lemon yellow with a tinge of green. Impression of cool climate green apples and herbs on the nose, with a yeasty and dried leaf nuances wrapping at the back. Refreshing acidity balanced by a hint of sweetness. Very young (Tasting notes by Katsunori Kaneko.)

Gris de Koshu

Koshu from the Yamanashi prefecture in order to produce a wine which is firstly a food wine and, at the same time, an easy wine to get familiar with and pleasant to enjoy. “Gris,” which is a French term for the pinkish grey color, represents the color of the skin of Koshu.

Tasting Notes:

Bright pale lemon yellow. The nose showed aromas of golden delicious apple and white peaches, with hints of chive and leek and a subdued white pepper spicy character. Fresh soft fruit flavour and lively acidity spread across the palate, with a hint of bitterness at the back originated from grape skin. An approachable dry wine which exemplifies the flavours of Koshu. (Tasting notes by Katsunori Kaneko.)
