Rue de Vin - Tomi

When you visit the winery, you can buy tastings and take a walk in the fields. As a souvenir, I delivered about 10 bottles to my house, and Chardonnay is really delicious! I have visited many wineries in Yamanashi and Nagano, but I especially recommend them.

On October 12, 2019, Typhoon No. 19 caused serious damage to the Tokai Kanto Koshinetsu region. There was a flood of rivers, and Chikuma River in Nagano Prefecture was one of them. The next week he was going to volunteer for grape harvesting, and the typhoon flooded the Hokuriku Shinkansen and reduced the number of trains. The train from Karuizawa Station to the nearest station was not operating. When I was told that it would be inappropriate to go at such a time, he said that he would rather come with a sense of reconstruction and that it would have a significant impact on the tourism industry. Harvest volunteers with friends went in the morning and afterwards for a picnic (including lunch and wine made by the chef). I ordered a taxi from Karuizawa Station. During this time, the white grape Chardonnay was harvested. Due to the bad weather caused by the typhoon, the harvest was unable to catch up, and a local elementary school student was asked for that week. I did my first hand picking, but it was really hard. I felt that there were many things that could not be done by mechanical harvesting due to grape disease. Lunch boxes and wines from picnics were made from pears from local farms. Above all, lunch under the blue sky while watching the vineyards on a hill was exceptional. I think the morning harvest was a good spice. It was the week after the typhoon, and the SDF aircraft were passing through the sky. During lunch, Mr. Koyama, the president and brewer, talked about everything. I was very good at listening. He answered any questions. He told me that some people with a high level of craftsmanship wouldn't talk much, but he told me that the times had changed and that we couldn't survive. It is said that the field will be expanded from 2020. The black cat Coco-chan was sold as a cute invitation here. Many wines were sold out, but there were also many unique ones such as sparkling, merlot, and Kyoho. I purchased Merlot for home use, but I was looking forward to drinking it because it was better to let it lay down a little. I want to go harvest black grapes this year.

The place, atmosphere, clerk and food are wonderful wineries. Lunch was 1200 yen with drink and dessert. This is a lunch where you can enjoy your body with plenty of seasonal vegetables. Around the vineyard of various varieties, it is also ideal for a walk. You can park your car and walk. The driver had a non-alcoholic drink service.

I haven't been to a winery ... Purchased at the Atelier de Fromage near the winery, I wondered if the level of domestic Pinot Noir has reached this point ... I was impressed by the well-balanced, delicate and deep taste, and the Beaune-like taste of Burgundy. I'm ashamed to go to the winery next time, which I didn't know at all. It was a happy encounter ? This seedle yaba! Zero oxidation factor, berry fresh green apple acid is too comfortable and I want to drink it all at once. Oxidation progresses in about 1 hour, the taste changes to a mild taste, the color is a little to yellow, and it becomes yellow.

Due to rain on my trip, other schedules were canceled, so I rented a car and went for a while. It was so fashionable and lovely that I decided to buy it and go home, so I listened to the story and bought a rosé. He explained the fields, and if it wasn't raining, I would have liked to take a walk in the fields, but when the season came, I heard that he would pick grapes while having lunch with volunteers. I haven't bottling yet, so I heard that it's better to let it sit for about 3 months before drinking it. is.

[Lunch at the popular winery Rue de Vin. ] Hors d'oeuvre + main course + dessert + coffee 2420 yen Seasonal quiche (Fukinoto) Grilled whey pork from Tomi City with herbs Basque cheese cake and pomelo jelly Wine is combined from tasting (20ml). Rue de Vin wines are very valuable here because it is hard to compare different types of wine in Tokyo. I drank 6 kinds in 20ml. A great place for wine lovers. I will visit you again!

A trip to the Chikuma River Wine Valley The third one I visited Rue de Vin Lunch and wine here. ?? First, try 6 types of 20 ml tasting Then I added the following 3 types that I liked by glass Rue de Vin's representative Sauvignon Blanc has a good balance of grape aroma, juicy taste, moderate acidity and bitterness. Knorr with Pinot Noir as a rosé has a complex aroma and taste The scent is violets and cherries There is little sourness and astringency, and you can feel the mellow depth. Trio Van The scent is complex and astringent The wine with a firm body was perfect for meat dishes I bought a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc for my home, but I actually sold it to my neighbor IMADEYA, so I can go buy it again.
