Description

COUNTRY: Japan

REGION: Okayama

VARIETY: 92% Chardonnay, 8%: Albarino, Pinot Blanc, Kerner, Auxerrois, Viognier, Gewurtztraminer, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Muscat Bailey A

VINTAGE: 2021

FARMING: Organic/Biodynamic, Unfined/Unfiltered, No added SO2

WINEMAKING: We co-fermented 10 different grapes in addition to Chardonnay. Even diseased berries with poor appearance were actively used in the wine as long as they tasted sweet enough. After pressing with a balloon press, fermentation proceeded in stainless steel tanks without temperature control, and at the end of fermentation, the wine was bottled without adding sulfites to make it a slightly effervescent type.
