Hokkaido Winery

I found out that this winery was exhibiting at this year's Wind Fair, so I made a note to pay them a visit there. My first encounter with their wines was this botrytised Kerner,which I don't seem to have blogged about yet! I bought that bottle some 10 years ago, and still am waiting for an occasion to taste it.

They had a whole range of wines on show. I started off with a dry Kerner, and moved through a Gewurztraminer to a Zweigelt. Then I moved to varieties more popular in Japanese wine-making, such as Niagara ending with a rose wine made from Campbell Early. An interesting winery overall.
