Fukuihara - Domaine Hase

Rich fruitiness on the nose with ripe strawberry, blackcurrant, acerola, cherry, violet, cotton candy, and rosehip tea-like aroma. White varietal characters are also present on the base, with iyokan (Japanese citrus), quince, apricot and a firm minerality. A little tannin and hint of vanilla come through in the aftertaste. With bottle ageing, the wine is expected to become an elegant wine with a lightness, but with a predominantly red varietal character. Wine can be enjoyed on its own.

This wine has a higher proportion of black grape varieties from their own vineyards than the FUKUIHARA rosē, which we imported in 2023. The cuvées from several vintages were blended for the wine's finish (M.V. stands for Multi-Vintage). Chardonnay from Yoshizawa, a young grower who opened a vineyard in Fukuihara, where the winery is located, at the same time as them, and Muscat Bailey A, Zweigelt and Pinot Noir from their own vineyard were used to make the wine.
