Tokiwa-ni-moyuru Koshu 2022
This orange wine represents the origins of Katsunuma wine. The grapes are harvested late in the fall, when they have reached peak ripeness. The resulting acidity, bitterness, and alcohol content give the wine a richness that highlights the sweetness and umami of food, adding depth and complexity to the flavor.
The label, designed by Juri Ando, is titled “Yoiyo” and quotes the oldest known waka that deals with the volcanism of Mount Fuji: “常盤に燃る (Tokiwani moyuru)” – a verse from the A collection of poems by Kakinomoto no Hitomaro, " Gunchorui ." These words describe the eternal glow and imperishability of Mount Fuji. They symbolize the hope that this classic koshu wine - like Mount Fuji itself - will change its form over time and from different perspectives, always remaining a source of faith and art.
The wine exudes aromas of citrus fruits, apples, persimmons, and especially tea leaves. The delicate acidity and pleasantly strong tartness give it a three-dimensional structure.
