Feel the original taste of Koshu, Mamma Mia!
No supplementation of sugar & acid, filter, dripping agent, or sulfite added after fermentation.
It has a slightly darker and turbid orange-yellow tone, and has a rich fruit aroma such as apricots, pears, and pears unique to Delaware, and you can also feel the scent of Japanese citrus. Bottling is done before it is completely clarified, and after that, it is slightly turbid due to unfiltering.
Because of the skin contact (the juice of the grapes, the skin, and the seeds are in contact for a while), the aroma and taste are firm, and the wine is fruity and fresh, slightly dry.
