Discover Shiojiri, one of Japan’s renowned wine-producing regions, through a unique tasting experience featuring wines made exclusively in Shiojiri, Nagano. Taste 3–5 locally produced wines paired with carefully selected foods that bring out each wine’s distinctive character. Explore differences in color, aroma, flavor, grape varieties, and style while learning how Shiojiri’s climate, soil, and natural environment shape its wines. Your experience is guided by Kaori Takeda, an experienced wine educator who holds the WSET Level 4 Diploma in Wines & Spirits, WSET Level 3 Award in Sake, and the Japan Sommelier Association’s Wine Expert certification. Kaori makes wine approachable and enjoyable, sharing the stories behind the grapes, local producers, land, and culture of Shiojiri without overwhelming you with technical details. More than just a wine tasting, this experience offers a chance to discover a lesser-known side of Japan through its local wine, cuisine, landscape, and culture.
