Grace Wine Cuvee Misawa Akeno Koshu 2017

"Cuvée Misawa Akeno Koshu" was born from the belief in Koshu's potential, not needing to rely on conventional vinification techniques such as chaptalisation, acid adjustments and sur lie, which were deemed necessary. The wine was reborn as a new "wine of terroir" after further research - the "Koshu Misawa Vineyard".

Koshu grapes grown at the Misawa Vineyard yield less than 30 hl/ha. They are harvested separately by parcel and sometimes even by vine, and then vinified using indigenous yeasts from the vineyard. Malolactic fermentation, which is rare for Koshu, occurs naturally, giving the wine a taste that is distinctly different from previous Koshu wines. With its full-bodied aroma and soft, complex depth, this is a wine that has the potential to age well.
