A wine with aromas of red fruits, supported by refreshing acidity and soft, supple tannins. Crafted exclusively from carefully nurtured Japanese-grown grapes, it is thoughtfully blended to achieve a harmonious balance reminiscent of a Japanese garden. It pairs beautifully with seasonal ingredients and is particularly well suited to Japanese cuisine seasoned with mirin and soy sauce. Bright ruby in color. The nose offers rich aromas of cassis, strawberry, and plum, layered with notes of tobacco, forest floor, clove, and Japanese pepper (sansho), adding depth and complexity. On the palate, vibrant acidity and soft tannins are in harmony, while hints of vanilla and coffee derived from oak aging lend further complexity to the lingering finish.

Type: Red
Varietal: Merlot, Muscat Bailey A
