Yoichi's terroir and Italian techniques support our winemaking.
From trellis-trained vineyards (field area: approx. 16 ha) cultivated since the 1980s, and a winery equipped with the latest technology while learning from traditional Italian methods, we aim to craft wines that are celebrated worldwide.

More than 16 hectares of estate vineyards are entirely trained on trellises.\n\nThe winery has inherited the skills and knowledge of Takeshi Fujimoto, a master grower who has cultivated wine grapes in Yoichi since the 1980s.
The winery learns both traditional Italian methods and the latest techniques from Riccardo Cotarella, one of modern Italy’s leading enologists and a key figure in the modernization and quality improvement of Italian wine, and passionately pursues winemaking with global ambitions.
