Red wine from Japan — Nagano, Japan
MERLOT 2019 (Red)
Norano farm & winery / Nagano, Japan

About this wine
From Nagano Prefecture, Norano farm & winery presents its "MERLOT 2019 (Red)", a dry red wine with 12% alcohol and a medium body. As part of the renewal from "Hasumi Farm" to "Norano farm & winery", this vintage's label retains the former name.
This wine is crafted through a consistent process: meticulously grown Merlot grapes from their own farm are harvested, fermented with wild yeast, and then carefully aged in oak barrels.
This bottle, imbued with the winemaker's dedication, offers a choice to quietly explore its authentic flavors that draw out the land's character, while its label preserves the history of its former name.
