This grappa is made from the pommace of "Mon Petit Rouge," a wine made using Kyoho grapes from Le Bois d'Azur , a winery in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture.

After completing training in the Jura and Burgundy regions of France, Aoki opened a winery in his hometown of Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, upon returning to Japan. At Le Bois d'Azur, which means "blue forest," he reclaimed abandoned farmland at the foot of Mount Tsukuba, planted grape vines, and brews wine using Kyoho grapes grown at his parents' home.
We visited this place through an introduction from Mr. Yuhara of the famous Tsukuba liquor store, Grape Winery Yuhara , and were greeted by a press machine set up in the winery, which had been converted from his parent's garage.

The large Kyoho grapes retained their aroma even after they were pressed, so we brought the grapes home with us, the aroma still wafting through the air in the car, and distilled them while they were still fresh. We then aged the grapes in glass flasks for three months.
With a low alcohol content, this grappa is smooth, sweet, and easy to drink.

This grappa is made from the pomace of "mon petit rouge," a wine made from grape grapes from the winery le bois d'azur in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture.

After training in Jura and Burgundy in France, Mr. Aoki opened a winery in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture, where his parents live, after returning to Japan. At le bois d'azur, which means "blue forest," he cultivated abandoned land at the foot of Mt. Tsukuba, planted grape seedlings, and brewed wine using grapes grown by his family.
We visited this place through an introduction by Mr. Yuhara of the famous Tsukuba sake brewery, Budoshuzura Yuhara, and were celebrated with a press sitting in the winery, which was renovated from the garage of his parents' house.

The large grapes seemed to still have some aroma left in the grapes after pressing, so we took them home fresh, distilled them, and aged them in glass flasks for three months.
It is a smooth, sweet, and pleasant to drink grappa with a low alcohol content.
