Winemaking Table Wine Blanc 2025 is made from Delaware grapes sourced from Yamagata. While previous vintages were released as a pétillant, this year it is crafted as a still wine with only a slight natural spritz. The grapes were harvested slightly earlier to retain acidity, then dried in the shade for 1 to 4 weeks. After destemming and gentle foot crushing, they were pressed using a vertical basket press and fermented in resin tanks with indigenous yeasts. After primary fermentation, the wine was bottled during malolactic fermentation, leaving a delicate, fine spritz on the palate. No additives were used. To create a fresher and more balanced profile, the harvest sugar level was intentionally kept lower than in previous years, resulting in brighter aromatics such as green apple and peach rather than overt sweetness. The label features a crayon drawing of grapes by the winemaker’s daughter, adding a personal and warm touch to the wine.
