It was bottled by hand at the final stage of fermentation while retaining the characteristics of young wine. It retains a slight fizz. It is full of freshness. It is a cloudy, dry raw wine.
This is the first Chardonnay we tried this year. We harvested it with the acidity reduced to the very last moment, so it has a sweet and gentle flavor. The sweet honey-like aroma is charming among the citrus aroma. Because it is unfiltered, it has a slightly yellowish color and you can really taste the grapes. Like Hama Wine, it is not sugared. The sugar content of the pure grapes is converted into alcohol content. No antioxidants (*) are used. Enjoy the taste of the wine at the beginning of the 2020 season as an aperitif before a meal. This is a raw wine. Please enjoy it by standing it upright and chilling it thoroughly without leaving it in the refrigerator. Please be careful of bubbles when opening.
The raw material, Chardonnay, is produced in Akashina, Azumino City, Nagano Prefecture. The producers are Hiroya Suzuki and his wife, who used to work as office workers in Yokohama. Wanting to make agriculture their career, they moved to Azumino and opened a vineyard (Kirari Farm Suzuki ). Thanks to a connection made by a local winery, they were able to deliver a very clean and high-quality Chardonnay in the 2020 season.
