We used Koshu grapes from the Minaminoro area, where our winery is located, and finished with 20 months aging during second fermentation in the bottle. It features fine creamy bubbles and a refreshing aroma reminiscent of Japanese citrus.
About the producer
Seeking for the one that lasts eternally
Since Lumiere Winery's predecessor, Furiya Winery, was founded by Tokugi Furiya in 1885, we are one of the oldest family-owned wineries in Japan, continuing to grow grapes and make wine in the same place, and will celebrate our 140th anniversary in 2025.
Now under the leadership of the 5th generation, Shigeki Kida, we continue to challenge the new era of Japanese wine with his motto, 'Tradition & Innovation'.
