Toki is a dry-style rosé from Kinjyo Budoshu, blending Koshu and Muscat Bailey A grapes grown around Katsunuma, Yamanashi. Unlike the winery's sweeter rosé Akane, made from the same two varieties, Toki is vinified in a crisp, refreshing dry style. Its name references toki-iro, a traditional Japanese color describing the pale, soft pink of the crested ibis (toki) feather — a fitting nod to the wine's delicate rosé hue. Bottled at 12% ABV in a 720ml format.
Where Akane leans sweet, Toki shows what the same Koshu–Muscat Bailey A blend can do in a crisp, dry register — a quietly confident everyday rosé from Katsunuma.
