About this wine
A white blend from Caney Wine's 'Vino da Manriki' line, pairing the aromatic, easy-drinking Delaware grape with structure from Chardonnay, both grown on the Kanai family's plots in the Manriki district of Yamanashi City. The name 'Chardera' is a portmanteau of Chardonnay and Delaware.
An aromatic, approachable white — a friendly entry point into Japanese natural wine.

"A playful, lychee-scented blend that shows Caney Wine isn't afraid to invent its own vocabulary — quite literally, in the case of this wine's name."
Food Pairings
Its lychee-like aromatics make it a natural partner for lightly spiced Asian dishes, and its clean acidity suits sashimi, shellfish, and salads.
