Kinkei Wine's Nouveau White Sweet is a seasonal, early-release wine made from 100% Yamagata-grown Delaware grapes. It showcases vivid, fresh fruit aromatics and a distinctive natural sweetness balanced by lively acidity and a mineral edge, finishing surprisingly clean for a sweet-style wine. Released only for the current vintage as part of Kinkei's Nouveau lineup, it captures the season's freshest character before it fades.
Kinkei's Nouveau White Sweet captures Yamagata Delaware at its freshest — a fleeting, seasonal expression worth catching before the vintage sells out.
