The Final Chapter of wa-syu Limited Brew Wine Is Finally Complete! Chateau Katsunuma Co., Ltd. Releases "Barrel Aged Muscat Bailey A 2019"!

Operated by JUN Co., Ltd., "wa-syu OFFICIAL ONLINE SHOP (hereinafter referred to as wa-syu)" is an online shop proposing the enjoyment of Japanese wine.

On Tuesday, March 8, 2022, "Barrel Aged Muscat Bailey A 2019", a limited brew wine created in collaboration with Chateau Katsunuma Co., Ltd., was released.

With this, the final chapter of wa-syu limited brew wine is finally complete.

Let's take a closer look at what kind of wine it has become.

A Precious Bottle Crafted by a Long-Established Winery

"Barrel Aged Muscat Bailey A 2019" was crafted by Chateau Katsunuma, a winery steeped in history and tradition founded in 1877, located in Katsunuma, Yamanashi Prefecture.

Created by this prestigious winery committed to "entirely handcrafted consistency, from grape cultivation to brewing and sales," it is reportedly a deep-flavored red wine that demonstrates the potential of Muscat Bailey A, an indigenous Japanese grape variety.

About "Barrel Aged Muscat Bailey A 2019"

"Barrel Aged Muscat Bailey A 2019" uses Muscat Bailey A painstakingly grown in the Katsunuma area, a renowned wine-producing district in Yamanashi Prefecture.

It is a prized red wine that has undergone 12 months of maturation in French oak barrels.

With concentrated fruitiness reminiscent of ripe plums, a gently unfolding oak aroma, and a lingering finish, it is said to be a bottle that brings out the potential of Muscat Bailey A.

It is a specially bottled, premium gem that we hope not only Japanese wine enthusiasts who enjoy Japanese wine on a regular basis, but also those looking to step into the world of Japanese wine will definitely try.

Pairings that can only be enjoyed with Japanese wine, such as "yakitori with sauce, sukiyaki, and takoyaki," are highly recommended.

Careful Attention to the Label Design!

The label of "Barrel Aged Muscat Bailey A 2019" is finished with a simple yet powerful design.

Remarkably, this label design was created by Mr. Tsuneaki Imamura, Managing Director of Chateau Katsunuma and head of winemaking.

Holding numerous titles including Officier of the Guilde des Fromagers, Chevalier of the Ordre des Coteaux de Champagne, Bachelor of Wine Science from the University of Yamanashi, and sommelier, Mr. Imamura is a prominent figure in the world of Japanese wine who handwrote the label design himself.

His pride in the wine he crafted and his confidence in its flavor are conveyed directly through the label.
