Winemaker’s note
The Vineyard Moo Mori to Sora (Forest and Sky) is a blend of the more full-bodied, elegant varieties planted at Vineyard Moo. Chardonnay and Aligote provide body, depth, and structure, while the Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling provide graceful hints of fruit and flowers, and good acidity.
The grapes are harvested separately by cultivar to ensure optimal ripeness. They are then gently pressed and fermented at cool temperatures using wild yeasts. The fermentations are carried out mostly in stainless steel, but some older French Oak barrels (30%) were used to enhance mouthfeel and texture. Aging was sur lies for 8 months before bottling without filtration.
The result is a full-bodied, elegant wine redolent of ripe peach and pear, with hints of elderflower and herbs. The balance is quite good (2023 was an atypically warm year in Hokkaido, leading to a lack of acidity in some wines), yielding a wine very enjoyable now, yet capable of aging a few years in bottle.
