About “Shinshu Vignerons Night in Kyukamura Norikura Kogen”
“Shinshu Vignerons Night in Kyukamura Norikura Kogen” is an experience exclusively for hotel guests, created by the resort to mark Nagano Prefecture's 150th anniversary and introduce the appeal of Shinshu wine not only through its taste but also through the people who make it.
Centered on Nagano's celebrated Shinshu wine, the event invites the vignerons themselves. Guests can hear directly about their vineyards and cultivation, the condition of the year's grapes, and their thoughts on winemaking while interacting with the producers.
