A dry white blend from the 2023 vintage, made from Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon grown on Yamanokyo Ota Winery's own vineyard in Yamano-cho, Fukuyama City. This particular three-variety cepage is unique to the 2023 vintage. It opens with bright green apple and pineapple aromas, and finishes with a gentle, ginjo-sake-like softness. On the winery's own tasting scale it rates low in sweetness but high in acidity and fruit concentration (sweetness 1/5, acidity 4/5, fruitiness 4/5).
