A rising star in Alsace, blending Japanese precision with traditional winemaking for exquisite results that resemble the Burgundian approach.Starting as a sommelier in restaurants, he honed his craft in oenology school in France and trained across the globe, from New Zealand's Waipara to Japan's Yamanashi.
Drawn to Alsace in 2012 where he found his home, after training with Domaine Josmeyer, Domaine Hurst, Isabelle Meyer, Jean Boxler, and Jean-Paul Zusslin to name a few. Today, he's one of the passionate small growers, crafting wines with soul, joining an iconic list of Japanese vignerons in France.
This Riesling is a stunning expression of balance and complexity. Its beautiful depth and richness are perfectly offset by razor-sharp acidity, creating an irresistible tension on the palate. Expect vibrant notes of oyster shell, zesty citrus peel, and juicy orchard fruits, making it wonderfully refreshing and undeniably moreish. A wine that's as elegant as it is vibrant.
