About "Yamagata Tsuruoka Koshu 2023"
"Yamagata Tsuruoka Koshu 2023" is a white wine brewed by Fukagawa Winery Tokyo.
Using Koshu grapes grown in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture, it pursues a fresh and pure flavor.
Characterized by its clear, pale color and crisp mouthfeel, it pairs well with a wide variety of dishes, including Japanese cuisine, making it an everyday wine to enjoy.
A First-Ever Feat for Tokyo!
"Yamagata Tsuruoka Koshu 2023," which is currently on sale, won a Bronze Award in the Koshu category at the recently held Japan Wine Competition 2024 (Japanese wine competition).
While there have been several award-winning wines made with Koshu, this marks the very first time for a wine produced in Tokyo.
Mr. Kaneko, who is in charge of winemaking, commented: "This award is entirely thanks to the growers who cultivated the grapes. It served as a wonderful opportunity to let many people know that fantastic wines can be made even at an urban winery in Tokyo."
This is a wine to watch as it carries the future of urban winery culture.
