Grace Rose 2019
Yamanashi, Japan
A blend of 47% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. Complex aromas of cherry, red currant, blood orange flesh and peels; spicy aromas from cumin seeds and pink pepper; rose-hip tea, with hints of toastiness unfolding. Mellow on the attack, dry, with firm acidity giving structure, pointing to its high-altitude origin. Low yields result in elegantly concentrated fruit flavours of sour cherry, red currant, blood orange and pink pepper filling the mid-palate, yet alcohol is moderate, with a finish suggesting tension.
Alc. 12.5%

Winery Profile
GRACE WINE – Yamanashi
Established in 1923 in Katsunuma, this family-owned winery established by Chotaro Misawa is now run by his fourth-generation successor Shigekazu Misawa, whose daughter Ayana is in charge of winemaking. The main-winery is still in Katsunuma and produces primarily Koshu. Since 1990 the family has been concentrating its efforts on improvements in grape production. The winery’s goal is a wine reflecting a unique combination of soil, sunlight, and altitude. It has been a pioneer in replacing conventional Japanese viniculture with vertical shoot positioning to produce a more richly flavoured grape. The goal is wines that are eco-friendly, with a natural, gallant and quietly elegant taste.
