Yutaka Nakajima was studying at chef school when he came across wine. He’s a big fan of natural wine, and also has a strong affection for Alsace. He has experience working in the Loire and Baden (Germany), and in 2011 he decided to plant a vineyard in Tomi, Nagano. The small winery followed in 2014. The first plantings were Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc and Merlot, and Yuataka also tried Gamay but it wasn’t successful here. His more recent plantings are Pinot Gris, and soon he will plant some Savagnin, Ploussard and Trousseau on new land that he has acquired.
