I will do my best.\n\nThe grapes were hand-destemmed during sorting.

A positive, subtle acidity.\n\nWinemakers and sommeliers who tasted the wine before its release praised it as being like Gevrey-Chambertin.\nThe power and earthiness are like Gevrey-Chambertin, the red fruits and orange like Vosne-Romanée, and the nuances of incense and sandalwood and smoothness are like Nara – it contains elements characteristic of each of these regions.\nIn Burgundy terms, I believe it's of a quality between a good regional and a village-level wine. It's certainly not Premier Cru, but I think it's a good wine.\nIt's drinkable now, but it should be fine to age for 10 years.\nWe will age most of it at the winery, but we are releasing a small amount this time.","brand":"KITANI WINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48783551987929,"sku":"00002","price":11000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0804\/6087\/3945\/files\/191176103_01_be788ca3-cbe5-48fc-a337-4fa29784d4e3.jpg?v=1784547870"},{"product_id":"奈良ワインシャインマスカット2025","title":"Nara Wine Shine Muscat 2025","description":"White wine, 750ml, 10.4% ABV, made with Shine Muscat grapes from Gojo City, Nara Prefecture, resin cork, no capsule, contains sulfites, no chaptalization, approximately 400 bottles produced.\n\nWe use Shine Muscat grapes from Kawasaki Vineyard in Gojo City, Nara Prefecture.\nAlthough seedless, the grapes were late-harvested.\n\nWe're starting to understand how to best process large-berried varieties.\nI feel that maximizing the deliciousness of the skins through hand de-stemming and semi-carbonic maceration is key.\n\nBased on comments from preliminary tastings with sommeliers:\nAromas of muscat, lychee, rose, geraniol, freshness, salinity, yuzu, sweetness and freshness, black tea, pu-erh tea, jasmine tea, quince.\n\"Drinks like juice, I want ice cream made from this.\" \"I thought it was an Alsatian wine.\"\n\"Pairs well with the second course of a Japanese kaiseki meal.\" \"The aroma is pure Shine Muscat.\" \"The first sip reveals an interesting progression of flavors: Shine Muscat, then acidity, then bitterness.\"\n\nPairs with spring wild vegetables, bamboo shoots.\nAlternatively, age it for pairing with mushrooms in autumn.\nEvokes the image of Kyoto and Nara Japanese cuisine.\n\nPairs well with egg dishes, dishes without acidity, and Chinese dishes with a starchy sauce like Tenshinhan.","brand":"KITANI WINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48783552086233,"sku":"00005","price":3300.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0804\/6087\/3945\/files\/189464236.webp?v=1780039328"},{"product_id":"奈良ブランデラウェア樽熟成2024","title":"Nara Delaware Barrel Aged 2024","description":"White wine, 750ml, 10.9% alc, Delaware grapes from Kaminaka-cho, Nara Prefecture (organic cultivation only in 2024), resin cork (wax seal), sulfites added, sugar added, approx. 280 bottles produced.\n\nIn 2024, we took over the management of the vineyard in Kaminaka-cho from which we had been sourcing grapes in 2022 and 2023.
