  • Cork Dork

    Whole bunch carbonic macerated Muscat Bailey A, blended with Syrah and Cabernet Franc. After 6 months grapes were pressed and left to stand before bottling.

  • The Winery

    After a number of years working as head winemaker at Grape Republic, Mitsu seeked out his own vineyard, renting a Delaware farm in Kubote, Kaminoyama City in Yamagata in 2019, cultivating and brewing wine in the Spring of 2020.

    Kaminoyama City in Yamagata Prefecture has little rainfall during the growing season, and relatively little snowfall. With the ageing population and idle land increasing in the area, Mitsu was aware of uncertainty for future grape production in the area. He started the vineyard with the design to create something special and inspire future generations to continue the tradition in the area.
