An artisanal cuvée crafted from Merlot grapes cultivated without the use of synthetic pesticides, chemical fertilizers, or herbicides in the Tazawa district of Tomi City.

Fermented separately using native yeasts and with minimal antioxidants, this red wine is bottled without filtration, preserving its natural integrity.

It possesses a unique, gentle character distinct from other wines, characterized by its smooth mouthfeel and robust flavour profile. The complex finish harmoniously blends rich fruit notes with subtle barrel-aged aromas.
