Shiro no Hatake Mondobrie (2024 vintage) is a white wine from Domaine Hide in Minami-Alps City, Yamanashi. It is made from Mondobrie, a disease-resistant crossing of Chardonnay and Cayuga White registered in Yamanashi Prefecture in 2014. Grown organically in the 'White Field' (Shiro no Hatake) vineyard without rain-cover vinyl, the grapes are fermented with natural yeast and no added sulfites. The producer notes the wine's rich muscat-like aromatics become more elegant as the vines mature year after year.
A rare chance to taste Mondobrie, a homegrown Yamanashi crossing barely a decade old — Domaine Hide's low-intervention, sulfite-free approach lets its muscat-like aromatics speak for themselves.
