What grape is Rebell made from?

Rebell is made from 100% Steuben grapes, a labrusca-derived variety, sourced from Yamagata Prefecture.

Is Rebell a sparkling wine?

It's a lightly effervescent (pétillant-style) red — fermentation with wild yeast and unfiltered bottling give it a natural, gentle sparkle rather than a full Champagne-style fizz.

What does Rebell taste like?

Pale raspberry-red in color, with charming berry aromas and juicy, fruit-forward flavor. Soft acidity up front gives way to a richer, more umami-like depth the longer the bottle is open.

How should I serve Rebell?

Serve well chilled to enjoy its natural sparkle and bright fruit; because it's unfiltered and lightly sparkling, keep it refrigerated until pouring.

About Rebell

Style: Red, Sparkling
Grape Varieties: Steuben
Price Range: ¥3,960; tax included
Alcohol: 11%

Rebell is a lightly effervescent natural red from Natan Winery in Miyoshi City, Tokushima, made with 100% Steuben grapes sourced from Yamagata Prefecture. Fermented with wild yeast and bottled unfiltered, it pours a pale raspberry-red hue with a gentle, charming sparkle. Aromas of ripe berries lead into a juicy, fruit-forward palate with soft acidity, and the wine builds in depth and umami-like richness the longer it's open. Winemaker Namika Inoshita created Rebell in response to a request for 'a wine that inspires women' — the name means someone who stays true to themselves, no matter the influence around them, and the crystal-and Ohia-lehua-motif label (illustrated by nail artist NAIL STUDIO TETO) reflects the same idea of delicate beauty paired with inner strength.

Sommelier's Note

A rare all-Steuben pét-nat-style red that turns a humble table grape into something genuinely charming — proof that Japan's natural wine scene rewards curiosity over pedigree.

New to wine?

A playful, easy-drinking pétillant-style red — its gentle fizz and juicy berry fruit make it a friendly first step into natural sparkling reds.

Food Pairings

The gentle sparkle and bright red-berry fruit make Rebell a natural match for charcuterie, soft cheeses, and light grilled dishes; the developing umami character as it opens also pairs well with teriyaki chicken, grilled skewers, and dishes seasoned with soy or miso.
