10Rワイナリー
10R Winery (pronounced 'Toar,' meaning 'a certain' or 'some' in Japanese) is Hokkaido's only custom crush winery and winemaker incubator, founded in 2012 by American-born winemaker Bruce Gutlove and his wife Ryoko in Kurisawa-cho, Iwamizawa City. Gutlove holds a BS from Cornell and an MS in Enology from UC Davis; after two decades as head winemaker at Coco Farm & Winery in Tochigi, he moved to Hokkaido to pursue a new vision of what Japanese Pinot Noir could become. The winery operates three wine lines: the Kamihoro Estate series (from 10R's own ~1 ha Kurisawa vineyard), KWtN — 'Kamihoro Wine to Nakama-tachi' (wines made from contracted partner growers' vineyards across Hokkaido), and the Coco & 10R / こことある collaboration series released under Coco Farm & Winery's label.

2Naturkinder is the natural wine project of the married couple Michael Völker and Melanie Drese, based at Michael's family winery in Kitzingen, Franken, which has been growing grapes since 1843. After careers in science publishing between London and New York, the pair returned home, began farming the estate's roughly seven hectares organically from 2012, and released their first zero-sulfur wines under the 2Naturkinder label in 2013, starting with just a few hundred bottles. Working muschelkalk and Keuper soils, they hand-harvest, ferment spontaneously, and bottle their wines unfined and unfiltered with no additives — including no added sulfites — at any stage. The estate is also known for a bat conservation project, fertilizing select vineyard plots with guano from a resident colony of endangered grey long-eared bats. 2Naturkinder is not a member of the VDP, and its wines have become a benchmark among sommeliers for a raw, honest expression of Franken's Silvaner, Bacchus, and Müller-Thurgau.

8 Vineyard (officially 8 vin-yard MISAKA, pronounced "Huit Vineyard Misaka" in French) is a winery operated by New Yamanashi Wine Brewing Co., Ltd. (ニュー山梨ワイン醸造株式会社), a directly managed subsidiary of JA Fuefuki agricultural cooperative. Founded in 1963 in Misaka Town, Fuefuki City, Yamanashi Prefecture — the city that boasts Japan's number-one grape cultivation area, harvest volume, and shipment volume — this winery has a proud six-decade history of crafting wines from 100% locally grown grapes. The brand name "8 vin-yard MISAKA" carries deep symbolism: the number 8 (八) is traditionally considered auspicious in Japan, representing good fortune and prosperity. Laid on its side, it becomes the infinity symbol (∞), embodying the winery's wish for enduring success. The "8" also represents the eight farming regions within JA Fuefuki that supply grapes exclusively to this estate. Every bottle is made from grapes grown in Misaka Town, preserving authentic terroir of this storied wine district. The winery produces wines from both indigenous Japanese grape varieties — most notably Koshu (甲州), which has been cultivated in Yamanashi for over 1,200 years — and traditional red varieties. Their flagship white wine, Misaka Free-run Koshu (御坂 フリーラン甲州), is made using only free-run juice from Koshu grapes, resulting in delicate citrus aromas, fine minerality, and refreshing acidity. Their flagship red, Yachikura Muscat Bailey A (八千蔵 マスカットベーリーA), is crafted from vines over 60 years old in the historic Yachikura district, yielding a wine of uncommon depth and character with cherry-like aromas and well-integrated tannins. In 2019, the winery made a landmark decision to begin barrel aging, producing their first oak-aged wine under the guidance of Yasuo Murakami, a leading figure at the Japan Winery Association. The result, "Takei" (竹居), showcases vanilla and toasted oak notes beautifully integrated with the regional Koshu grape. The winery also produces wines from rare and distinctive varieties including Adirondack (アジロン) — a fragrant American-origin black grape grown almost exclusively in Yamanashi — and TAIHO, a large-berried variety related to Fujuminori. In 2025, 8 vin-yard MISAKA was recognized with a Connoisseur's Award at the 8th Japan Winery Award (日本ワイナリーアワード 2025), an honor given to distinctive wineries chosen by wine specialists for their unique character and future potential.

98WINEs is a winery founded in 2018 by Shigeyuki Hirayama, former chief winemaker at Mercian (Château Mercian), located in Fukuori, Shiojawa, Koshu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, at an elevation of 650 meters. Using only Koshu and Muscat Bailey A grapes suited to this terroir, the winery practices low-intervention winemaking with gravity-fed fermentation, no filtration, and minimal use of additives.

The winery comprises three buildings: an iron building for gravity fermentation, a stone building for aging (reusing local stone walls), and a wooden building for tastings, sales, and social interaction.

Established in 1954, Aan de Doorns Wine Cellar is a cooperative winery located about 8km from Worcester on the R43 towards Villiersdorp, in South Africa's Western Cape. Its name, Dutch for 'at the thorns', comes from the thorn trees that once lined the banks of the nearby Doorns River. The cellar draws grapes from roughly 1,600 hectares of vineyards farmed by around 27 member growers across the Breede River Valley, one of the largest cooperative operations in the Worcester region. Through its partnership in the First Cape Group, the cellar exports widely, notably to the UK. Its range spans Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinotage, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Muscadel and Cape Ruby Port, alongside the everyday-drinking Route43 and Doornroodt blends, all built around a philosophy of consistent quality at an accessible price.

Abbadia Ardenga is a historic estate in Torrenieri, on the northeastern edge of Montalcino, Tuscany, whose roots trace back to an 11th-century monastery and, later, ownership by the noble Piccolomini family (whose members included Pope Pius II). Today the estate belongs to the Società Esecutori di Pie Disposizioni, an ancient Sienese charitable institution, and has been managed for decades by the Ciacci family — Mario Ciacci, who also served as director of the Consorzio del Brunello di Montalcino for about 15 years, oversaw the estate's modern era. Farming just a handful of hectares dedicated entirely to Sangiovese, Abbadia Ardenga produces around 40,000 bottles a year across Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Piaggia DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG, Rosso di Montalcino DOC and Sant'Antimo Rosso DOC. Winemaking stays deliberately traditional: fermentation in stainless steel followed by a minimum of 36 months' aging in large Slavonian oak casks and further refinement in bottle before release, yielding structured, age-worthy wines that critics such as James Suckling and Jancis Robinson have praised as some of Montalcino's best-value classics.
