Coco Farm & Winery
Noumin Dry 2022
A "heartier-than-usual" white blend of mostly Müller Thurgau. Fairly rich in texture, hyper aromatic, with a medium plus body and decent acidity. This particular wine is closer in style to a Loire valley Chenin Blanc but with something else that you can't quite put your finger on. An easy going entry level foray into the world of Japanese wines.

Region: Tochigi, Japan
Tastes like: Boxwood, flint, persimmon
Best with: Simmered pork, fatty sushi, kisu tempura
Size: 750 ml
Alc Content: 11.6%

Coco Farm & Winery
These hillside vineyards started being cultivated in the 1950s by a group of young boys who had challenges in school. Together with their teachers, they worked the land organically, free of chemical fertilizers and herbicides. On this same patch of land, in 1980, Coco Farrn Winery was born. Since 2007, Coco Farms has been growing 100% Japanese grapes to make fine wines.

Behind the Bottle
Winemakers listen carefully to the voice of the grapes. Allowing them to be expressed in the most natural way. The winery is now known for fine wine making, supported by excellent growers, sommeliers, restaurants and people who simply love their wines. This spirit has grown in the home fields of Hokkaido and Yamagata.
Each glass of wine is produced by nature, wind and light. Nothing added, nothing taken away. It is Coco Farm Winery’s wish that each encounter with their wines leads to moments of peace, beauty and music.
