NOMAZA 2022 (Red)

Named after a warm invitation in the Suwa dialect, "Nomazaa" (Let's drink!), NOMAZA 2022 from YATSUDAKE HARAMURA winery is a red wine that layers Nagano-grown Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Yamabudo. Learning the origin of this name gently softens the atmosphere of a quiet room.

The blend, a combination of 53% Nagano-grown Merlot, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 23% Yamabudo, paints its own unique blueprint within the 750ml bottle. Within its medium-bodied structure, where vibrant acidity and gentle tannins harmonize, the essence of each varietal is perfectly preserved.

On a night for red wine, simply gazing at the label and tracing this combination of numbers and varietals brings an unexpectedly quiet richness. As you savor it, gently reflecting on the story born from the local dialect, a moment of realization arrives: this might just be the bottle I should choose tonight.
