Character & origin

The wine in detail

Ask us

Arkadia Select Harvest 2019 is Takahata's flagship blend from Yamagata. Twelve barrels were selected from a total of 200 for this vintage. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot combine in a concentrated, complex red wine. It matures for 24 months in oak barrels, with 75 % new oak.

Blackberry and blackcurrant aromas are accompanied by vanilla, white pepper and delicate floral notes. On the palate, dense dark fruit meets velvety tannins and supporting acidity. Chocolate and spice notes shape the long finish.

The winery

Takahata

In southeastern Yamagata, Takahata works closely with the grape growers of its surrounding area. Since 1990, that relationship has produced a varied range of wines. Individual growing areas, the growers themselves and small-batch winemaking give the wines an origin that can be traced through to the bottle.
