Committed to the belief that great wine is made in the vineyard, Grace Wines were the first to research and introduce European training and pruning methods into their vineyards, such as introducing using long cordon training and Vertical Shoot Positioning in 1990. The wines here are made in a modern way to retain the delicate characteristics of Japan's individual and exciting Koshu grape variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.grace-wine.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The official website of Grace Wine, Japan\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eGrace Wine Website\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"grace-wine-private-reserve-koshu","title":"Grace Wine Yamanashi Koshu 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Grace Wine Yamanashi is made from Japan's most important indigenous grape variety, Koshu. The grapes for this wine are grown at 500 metres altitude in the elevated Hishiyama district of Katsunama in the Yamanashi prefecture. At this elevation, the cooler aspect allows for a slow maturation of the grapes over a long growing season. The vines are grown in distinctively volcanic soils with good drainage, providing excellent growing conditions for the Koshu grape. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks and then the wine was left on its lees for three months adding weight on the palate and concentrating the flavours. Pure, sublimely crisp and mineral in style, this wine is fresh and elegant with subtle notes of citrus, grapefruit, Golden Delicious apple and white pear. Dry, with a lively palate of crisp, ripe fruits and a charming acidity. A lovely expression of the delicate elegance of the Koshu grapes.[#intro]A sublimely crisp Koshu with an almost Chablis type razor sharp saltiness on the finish...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grace Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31429737644099,"sku":"A22GRACEKOSHUPR-1","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/products\/Koshu_Private_Reserve.jpg?v=1582559658"},{"product_id":"grace-wine-koshu-kayagatake","title":"Grace Wine Koshu Kayagatake 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Grace Wine Kayagatake is made from Japan's most important indigenous grape variety, Koshu.
