Part of the grapes were hand destemmed and fermented for about three weeks. The wine was then matured in oak barrels for 8-9 months, racked and bottled unfined and unfiltered. Until 2025 will continue to have fresh acidity and fruitiness. To enjoy the ripe aromas, it is recommended to savour the wine slowly in a large glass while enjoying the temperature changes; from 2026 to 2030, the fruit aromas will settle down with age and the flavour will improve with increased savouriness and concentration.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWhy Petit Manseng in Japan? \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSummers in Ashikaga, Tochigi, northern Kanto region, are hot and humid anyway. Incidentally, in 2020, 28 extremely hot days with a maximum temperature of 35°C or more were recorded at the neighbouring observatory in Sano. In general, grapes are more susceptible to disease when the days are too hot, as the acidity in the fruit decreases, and white wines in particular tend to taste flat. For the winery, it was everyone's wish to produce grapes that would not be affected by climatic changes such as extreme heat and heavy rain, and to produce good wine grapes of the right variety for the right place in the right climate in the northern Kanto region. In order to realise this wish, around 1990, a journey began to research and visit wine-growing regions around the world and to actually taste the grapes. On this journey, they came across Petit Manseng at the foot of the Pyrenees mountains.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThey thought the grapes would have a moderate acidity in Ashikaga and would make a reasonably well-balanced white wine. With this prediction, they started growing Petit Manseng in 2006. The vines grew well, with the Ashikaga heat producing ripe fruit with a tropical feel, while retaining a delicious acidity. They are very excited about the resulting wines and the possibilities for the future.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"COCO FARM \u0026 WINERY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46366192795979,"sku":"","price":50.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/7252\/9245\/products\/PetitManseng202001.jpg?v=1680686741"},{"product_id":"hanamusubi-white-2022","title":"HANAMUSUBI WHITE 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gubi-gubi.nl\/pages\/ito-farm\" title=\"Ito Farm\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eIto Farm\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOkazaki, Aichi\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eGrapes: \u003cstrong\u003eKyoho 50%, 40% consists of Jasmine, Shinano Smile, Gorby and Sunny Dolce,  Chardonnay 8%, Yamabudou 2%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eType: \u003cstrong\u003eWhite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eStyle: \u003cstrong\u003eDry, light-bodied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eColour: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePale copper\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAlcohol: \u003cstrong\u003e11.5%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWild yeast:\u003cstrong\u003e Yes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAny added sulphites: \u003cstrong\u003e10 ppm\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFiltered: \u003cstrong\u003eYes (coarse filter)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eServing temperature: \u003cstrong\u003e7-10°C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eProduction: \u003cstrong\u003e1,814 bottles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePlease store in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAroma of Chinese quince and stone fruits.

These grapes were destemmed, crushed and pressed. Then the must was fermented in stainless steel tanks for 2 weeks. The wine was racked and moved again to stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation was not intentionally carried out. The wine was then transferred to 225L and 110L old oak barrels and matured for 5 months. Only 10 ppm sulphite added at bottling. Filtered through a coarse filter (100 µm). No chaptalisation or acidification.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vineyard is located in a corner of a quiet residential area in the northern part of Okazaki in Aichi, almost in the middle of Honshu island. It receives sunlight from sunrise to sunset, has wide openings for good ventilation and well-drained sandy-gravel soils. It is a very favourable environment for viticulture. The winery respects the cycles of nature, adopts grass growing organic farming, minimises the use of pesticides. In 2022, despite double the normal rainfall in July and two typhoons in September, the total number of sunshine hours during the entire grape growing season was about 80 hours above average. This resulted in good colouration and average sugar levels of Brix 22-24. The flower knot on the label is a Japanese culture that values connections between people. It expresses the wishes of the winery's representative, Mr Takashi Ito, towards his wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ito Farm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46496936886603,"sku":"","price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/7252\/9245\/files\/HANAMUSUBIWHITE202201.jpg?v=1692614077"},{"product_id":"glouglou-blanc-2022","title":"Glou Glou Blanc 2022","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Fujimaru Winery\" href=\"https:\/\/gubi-gubi.nl\/pages\/fujimaru-winery\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKiyosumi-Shirakawa Fujimaru Winery\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKoto-ku, Tokyo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrapes: \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay, Delaware (from Yamagata)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eType: \u003cstrong\u003eWhite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStyle: \u003cstrong\u003eDry, light-bodied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColour: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePale lemon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlcohol: \u003cstrong\u003e9%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORwoaCgpJSERSOwsIBsFf9R4JcEhZcwsSCxIB0t1+\/MRJREFUSInlVkEOhCAMLMQX6cFHrM\/1EXrwTbMnTDPbVhfD7oFJSCZuYnNwO9B22hFiAiC9IP+bwC+RRUT2aTnl1XO93qcFvOf5tIbH8QqmspbzfKypjlodogLmY01ahLvcMjtzwhLI2\/fsJmx0O+ezZR3Zoi+ucNaFWny0bYg6ESFqhG6eJmFtcDujCbI6fJYLuauezsExBuuQlewJJmx0O6U4l1X0kxwc86vXmJ2jR8tTpczZnwvlq3X1CFk5Jmd0O5oHJm5ic3A7ydjGF1rFrh3dFApAUk9\/UG+AYzQBSnC2lUlFTkSuQmCC\/w==\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORwoaCgpJSERSOwsIBsFf9R4JcEhZcwsSCxIB0t1+\/MRJREFUSInlVkEOhCAMLMQX6cFHrM\/1EXrwTbMnTDPbVhfD7oFJSCZuYnNwO9B22hFiAiC9IP+bwC+RRUT2aTnl1XO93qcFvOf5tIbH8QqmspbzfKypjlodogLmY01ahLvcMjtzwhLI2\/fsJmx0O+ezZR3Zoi+ucNaFWny0bYg6ESFqhG6eJmFtcDujCbI6fJYLuauezsExBuuQlewJJmx0O6U4l1X0kxwc86vXmJ2jR8tTpczZnwvlq3X1CFk5Jmd0O5oHJm5ic3A7ydjGF1rFrh3dFApAUk9\/UG+AYzQBSnC2lUlFTkSuQmCC\/w==\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWild yeast:\u003cstrong\u003e Yes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAny added sulphites: \u003cstrong\u003e12 ppm\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFiltered: \u003cstrong\u003eNo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eServing temperature: \u003cstrong\u003e10-13°C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduction: \u003cstrong\u003e760 bottles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease store in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAromas of pineapple, elderflower, a hint of lemon, green apple and clove.

In 2022, the year was difficult in many ways, with a short rainy season that brought hot weather and a typhoon before the harvest that significantly reduced yields. The Chardonnay were a mixture of grapes with different degrees of ripeness, and the overall sugar content was higher than expected thanks to some of the fully ripe grapes. However, the fully ripe grapes also had some rot from cracks, so the selection was very thorough.

The Chardonnay was blended with Delaware, which was pressed in whole bunches and aged in stainless steel tanks, to give it the 'acidic fruitiness' that was lacking in the Chardonnay alone, and bottled in August. 12 ppm sulphites were added at bottling. The result is a pleasant wine with a crisp acidity on the attack and a rounded aftertaste from the wooden fermentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-1858651d-7fff-b2ba-42bf-46ac6ab032ad\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kiyosumi-shirakawa Fujimaru Winery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47216423600459,"sku":"","price":37.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/7252\/9245\/files\/GlouglouBlanc2022-1.jpg?v=1716458511"},{"product_id":"petit-karindo-blanc-2022","title":"Petit Karindo Blanc 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gubi-gubi.nl\/pages\/kitani-wine\" title=\"Kitani Wine\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKitani Wine\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKashiba, Nara\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrapes: \u003cstrong\u003eDelaware (from Osaka)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eType: \u003cstrong\u003eWhite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eStyle: \u003cstrong\u003eDry, light-bodied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColour: \u003cstrong\u003ePale gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlcohol: \u003cstrong\u003e10%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWild yeast: \u003cstrong\u003eYes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAny added sulphites: \u003cstrong\u003eNo\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFiltered: \u003cstrong\u003eNo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eServing temperature: \u003cstrong\u003e5-11°C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduction: \u003cstrong\u003e785 bottles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease store in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe aromas of lemon, yoghurt, Japanese ginger, lemongrass, Ramune soda drink, iodine scent, pear, honey and green grass.

Although it is hot in Osaka during the growing season, the vineyard is located in the mountains at a slightly higher altitude, so the acidity is preserved and the wine is well-balanced. The grapes were harvested in mid-August and rested in a fridge at 2°C. The grapes were then destemmed and crushed and slowly pressed in a pneumatic press for about 8 hours. The fragments of cells from the grape skins and the pulp were removed and fermented spontaneously in 700-litre stainless steel tanks, slowly fermenting in a room at a low temperature of around 12°C for around six months. After fermentation was complete, gravity allowed the lees to settle and the wine was racked.

The grapes were destemmed, crushed, pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. After racking, the wine was transferred again to stainless steel tanks. The wine was then transferred to old oak barrels where it matured for five months. Only 10 ppm sulphite added at bottling. Filtration through a rough filter (50 µm).

It receives sunlight from sunrise to sunset, has wide openings for good ventilation and well-drained sandy-gravel soils. It is a very favourable environment for viticulture. The winery respects the cycles of nature, adopts grass growing organic farming, minimises the use of pesticides. In 2023, the yield was 30% lower than planned, due to the drop in temperature around late May, which caused the grapes to fall off from the inflorescences, resulting in fewer grapes per bunch. In early June, during the rainy season, downy mildew developed from around the time of heavy rainfall. However, the weather became hotter immediately after the end of the rainy season in late July, and disease damage was kept to a minimum. 2023 was the year in which Ito Farm made a new start as Domaine Ito, with the completion of the winery and the granting of a winemaking licence. This wine is one of the first vintages as Domaine Ito. The grapes were grown while working towards the completion of the winery, and the winemaking licence was granted just before this Delaware was prepared.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe flower knot on the label is a Japanese culture that values connections between people.

The unit is made up of young people from the Motosawa area of Yamagata City who wish to preserve the landscape of their hometown's vineyards. In 2023, the grapes were very ripe due to a hot summer and little rainfall. The hot nights also meant that the colouring of the grapes did not develop as quickly as in 2023.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe high sugar content of the grapes was clearly indicative of a hot year with little rainfall, and the acidity of the grapes was correspondingly low, so they imagined that the wine could be quite different to that of previous years. They decided to extract all the characteristics of the grapes, even those of the skins, to make a wine that would give a full impression of the vintage. Two wines, white and orange, were made from the same grapes at the same time, blended and bottled at the end. The former was pressed in whole bunches and fermented slowly for 16 days. The wine was then racked and matured in stainless steel tanks. In the latter, the grapes were carefully selected and put in whole bunches for 14 days in closed tanks (semi-carbonic maceration), then the tanks were opened and pressed. Fermentation continued for 14 days, allowing the elements from the grape skins to be extracted carefully and to the maximum extent possible. White wine alone is dry with a high alcohol content, but the addition of orange gives pineapple and banana notes that are typical of freshly made Delaware. The result is a pleasant wine with a gorgeous, bitter taste derived from the grape skins.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutrition Facts per 100ml\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnergy: 73 kcal\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFat: 0 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e - Saturates: 0 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCarbohydrate: 2.0 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e - Sugar: 2.0 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProtein: 0.1 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSalt: 0g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-a6f5e7fe-7fff-8d2c-1393-1b870f9b125b\"\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kiyosumi-shirakawa Fujimaru Winery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47801236619595,"sku":"","price":36.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/7252\/9245\/files\/BUDOU_TO_IKIRU_DELAWARE_2023_01.jpg?v=1728400800"},{"product_id":"chardonnay-oak-2022","title":"Chardonnay Oak 2022","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gubi-gubi.nl\/pages\/nagomi-vineyards\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Nagomi Vineyards\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eNagomi Vineyards\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTomi, Nagano\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrapes: \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eType: \u003cstrong\u003eWhite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStyle: \u003cstrong\u003eDry, medium-bodied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColour: \u003cstrong\u003ePale yellow\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlcohol: \u003cstrong\u003e12%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWild yeast: \u003cstrong\u003eYes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAny added sulphites: \u003cstrong\u003e30ppm\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFiltered: \u003cstrong\u003eNo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eServing temperature: \u003cstrong\u003e10-13°C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduction: \u003cstrong\u003e900 bottles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease store in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFlint, apple, white flowers, quince, pear, a bit of citrus, brioche and butterscotch. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePalate of citrus and apple with mild oaky notes.

The winery uses a traditional non-filter method to slowly and carefully vinify its wines using the power of nature over time and with a lot of care. Cohime-sans 2022 was made using Delaware grown by three local farmers. All of the farmers have long-standing relationships with the winery and their vineyards are located along the mountains. The area has long been a popular grape-growing region due to its good drainage and sunlight, and the rising air flows that occur at the edge of the basin, which allow winds to blow through the area (Yamagata Prefecture accounts for nearly half of its cultivated area in Japan). The harvested Delaware were destemmed, crushed and put into stainless steel tanks. Fermentation with wild yeasts occurred. The wine was then racked off the lees after about three weeks. The wine was left in stainless steel tanks for six months before bottling.

The previous vintage (2023) had a relatively mild acidity, so for the 2024 vintage, the harvest target was adjusted from a sugar content of 18 to 17 to create a wine with more acidity. The grapes were harvested in mid-August and transported to the winery in Nagano, where they underwent a careful selection process over the course of a week. To further concentrate the flavors, the grapes were then air-dried for about two weeks. Due to the heavy rainfall in 2024, extra time was dedicated to sorting and drying the grapes. The pressed juice was fermented using wild yeast in a 15°C room. After fermentation, the wine underwent a longer-than-usual settling period of approximately two weeks on average before being racked. Freshly pressed juice, which had been frozen for storage, was then added, and the wine was bottled in early October. As in previous years, the wine was expected to undergo a second fermentation in bottle and develop into a pétillant style. However, fermentation stopped at a gas pressure of 0.9 bar, resulting in a white wine instead. Winemaker and winery owner Yutaka Nakajima analyzed that the likely causes were an overly long settling period after fermentation and insufficient oxygen supply during primary fermentation. Although the wine did not become a pétillant as intended, Yutaka personally considers this vintage to be the freshest and most delicious yet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYutaka has been making Petillant Rosé every year since 2014 using Nagano's speciality table grape, Kyoho. However, Shine Muscat are becoming more and more mainstream as table grapes in the prefecture, and Kyoho vines are rapidly being replaced by Shine Muscat. The Shine Muscat  is not suitable for wine due to its light taste, and after much thought to make a white table wine, he decided to make it from Delaware, one of Japan's popular table grape varieties originated in the USA that is also an important variety for Japanese wine. He purchased the grapes from Yamagata, located in the northern-east of Japan to make a white pétillant in the same way as their Petillant Rosé.

For the 2023 vintage, specially selected Koshu grapes were blended with varieties such as Kerner and Sauvignon Blanc. After de-stemming, the grapes were gently pressed and the juice was left to settle overnight at low temperature. The next day, the clarified juice was transferred to a stainless steel tank after pre-fermentation racking. To preserve the aroma, the juice was kept below 18°C and fermented with wild yeast over about a month. Fermentation was stopped by cooling the tank and racking the wine off the heavy lees at the ideal point where sweetness and acidity were perfectly balanced. While the 2022 vintage was aged in amphorae and barrels, the 2023 vintage was aged for around 4 months in stainless steel tanks.

Situated at a high altitude of 1,005 metres, the vineyard enjoys good ventilation and ample sunlight. The grapes grown in this cool-climate region are known for their vibrant aromas and crisp acidity. The name “small world” comes from the fact that this wine is a blend of different white grape varieties — each one bringing its own little world into a single bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2023, the mild winter led to early budburst, and with frost forecast just after the Golden Week holidays (in early May)—as is typical in the region—frost protection was carried out using heaters. Although rainfall was relatively high during the rainy season in May and June, the early end to the rainy season meant the vines were not seriously affected. From late summer into early autumn, the weather remained hot and dry, leading to faster ripening than usual. In what was a notably long, dry summer, even at the high altitude of 1,005 metres, acid levels dropped quickly, prompting an earlier harvest. Thanks to the low rainfall, fewer chemical treatments were needed, and the grapes were harvested in excellent condition—small-berried and healthy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe harvest took place in mid-October, with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Gris—primarily from vines aged six to eight years—harvested and gently pressed in whole-bunch. The juice was left to settle overnight before being racked, and fermentation was initiated using pied de cuve, a wild yeast starter culture prepared on-site, to ensure a smooth start in stainless steel tanks. Following fermentation, the wine was left to age on fine lees in stainless steel for eight months. It was bottled in early July without fining, after racking. Vinification was carried out at cave hatano, a winery also located in Nagano Prefecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutrition Facts per 100ml\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnergy: 75 kcal\u003cbr\u003eFat: 0 g\u003cbr\u003e - Saturates: 0 g\u003cbr\u003eCarbohydrate: 2.0 g\u003cbr\u003e - Sugar: 2.0 g\u003cbr\u003eProtein: 0.1 g\u003cbr\u003eSalt: 0g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"kifutato wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51228934013259,"sku":"","price":39.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/7252\/9245\/files\/smallworld202301.jpg?v=1750670803"},{"product_id":"chenin-blanc-sauvignon-blanc-2023","title":"Chenin Blanc \u0026 Sauvignon Blanc 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eAttention!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA MAXIMUM OF \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eONE ITEM\u003c\/span\u003e PER PERSON.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gubi-gubi.nl\/pages\/domaine-nakajima\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Domaine Nakajima\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDomaine Nakajima\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTomi, Nagano\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes: \u003cstrong\u003eChenin Blanc 74.5%, Sauvignon Blanc 25.5%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eType: \u003cstrong\u003eWhite\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStyle: \u003cstrong\u003eDry, medium-bodied\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColour: \u003cstrong\u003eMedium gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlcohol: \u003cstrong\u003e12%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWild yeast: \u003cstrong\u003eYes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAny added sulphites: \u003cstrong\u003e25 ppm\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eFiltered: \u003cstrong\u003eNo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServing temperature: \u003cstrong\u003e7-10°C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduction: \u003cstrong\u003e990 bottles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease store in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAromas of toasted macadamia and chestnut mingle with bright citrus notes like mandarin and navel orange.

It is made from Delaware grapes from Yamagata Prefecture, Japan’s leading region for Delaware in both volume and quality. In particular, the Okitama area, a lush basin surrounded by mountains with the Mogami River running through it, enjoys abundant sunshine, significant day–night temperature differences, and relatively low rainfall during the ripening season—ideal conditions for producing outstanding Delaware. This wine truly captures the character of what could be called a “Delaware kingdom”: Yamagata’s Okitama.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough Yamagata remains far cooler than Osaka, the impact of recent rising temperatures is being felt here as well. While grape sugars continue to reach impressively high levels, acidity seems to drop more quickly than before. Fully ripe fruit—Delaware included—is undeniably delicious to eat, but for winemaking, acidity plays a crucial role. Once fermentation is complete and all sugar has been converted into alcohol, it is the acidity that supports the structure and balance of the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith this in mind, Fujimaru focuses on preserving the acidity needed to create truly delicious wines by incorporating early-harvest Delaware (“Aodera”) even in Yamagata. In Dela-King, the vibrant acidity of Aodera adds a lively core and balance to the wine, while fully ripe Delaware contributes its expressive, fragrant fruit character. The result is a wine defined by fresh, energetic fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the winemaking, both Aodera and Delaware were whole-bunch pressed using a membrane press, then naturally fermented in open-top resin tanks.

Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at temperatures below 22°C over three to four weeks using indigenous yeasts, followed by malolactic fermentation with native lactic acid bacteria. The wine was then matured in stainless steel tanks for approximately six months before racking, blending, filtration, and bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe richness of botrytised fruit is balanced by the complexity gained through slow fermentation and élevage. With 16.4 g\/L of residual sugar, the wine offers a gentle sweetness rather than a fully dessert-like richness. Kerner’s naturally vibrant acidity keeps the palate fresh and lively, creating a harmonious balance between honeyed generosity and bright freshness.
