An event commemorating the establishment of the "Wine no Chikara ~the power of wine~" and Yokohama Kimijimaya Japanese Wine Pavilion will be held on Saturday, March 25th!
Its name is "Wain Flight 2023"
As wine lovers, this is definitely something not to miss!
For this event, "Wain" (Japanese rhyme) stands for "wine flight,"
which is originally a wine term used at restaurants and other venues to describe tasting and comparing several wines.
Aiming to introduce Japanese wine to a broad audience, this is one of Japan's largest paid tasting and networking events, held at Japan's main gateway, Haneda.
On the day, there will be band performances by people in the Japanese wine industry, special tastings at "Haneda Kimijimaya for One Day Only" commemorating the establishment of Yokohama Kimijimaya Japanese Wine Pavilion, and even a book-signing sale of "Home Cooking and Japanese Wine" by Munenori Ninomiya and Sorashido!!
(They will also sign copies for those who already bought the book if you bring it with you.)
In addition, there are plenty of events, including a tasting commemorating the "release of animal support wine"!
Under the sky where airplanes fly back and forth, you are sure to spend a wonderful holiday immersed in wine and music together with producers gathered from all across the country.
As many as 50 wineries gathering!
