Character & origin

The wine in detail

Ask us

Ishigura 2023 from Lumière is a fruit-forward red from Yamanashi, led by Muscat Bailey A. Its distinctive feature is fermentation in an underground granite vat in the winery's 1901 fermentation facility, registered as Japanese cultural heritage since 1998. Cool groundwater helps regulate the fermentation temperature naturally.

Fresh strawberry aromas lead to a palate of juicy fruit, lively acidity and soft tannins. The result is an approachable red wine with a fine structure.

The winery

Lumière

Lumière has made wine in Yamanashi since 1885. The family-owned winery brings together Koshu, red wines and sparkling wines with an unusual cellar tradition: historic granite fermentation tanks are still used for Ishigura. In its own vineyards, grass cover and close observation of the soil shape everyday work.
