ISHIKURA WAIN 2024 (Red)

From Yamanashi Prefecture's leading winery, Lumière, comes ISHIKURA WAIN 2024 (Red), the 2024 vintage of their signature label. This dry, medium-bodied red wine, made with Muscat Bailey A and bottled at 11% alcohol, offers a distinct choice for Japanese red wine enthusiasts.

The Muscat Bailey A used as the raw material is fermented in the historic granite "Ishikura Fermentation Tank," built in 1901 and designated as a National Registered Tangible Cultural Property. This historical brewing facility utilizes geothermal energy to stabilize fermentation temperatures, employing a method that draws out strawberry-like aromas, pleasant acidity, and soft tannins.

This limited edition, with its unique background of fermentation in the historic stone cellar, directly reflects the story of its winemaking process – a fusion of Yamanashi's terroir and the ingenuity of past generations. It's a reliable choice when seeking an approachable red wine with a compelling background story.
