【YellowMagicWinery Heat Beat KOSHU 2022】

Production: 950 bottles

Koshu grapes harvested from the only Koshu vineyard in Nanyo City, Yamagata Prefecture, were destemmed and crushed, then skin-contact macerated for 48 hours before pressing.
Without racking, the juice was then fermented in two new French oak barrels (not sulfured), two 2-year-old French oak barrels (sulfured for wood barrel storage), and the remaining juice was naturally fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks.

Overall, the balance is 9:1 for barrel to stainless steel tank.
After fermentation in oak, the wine was not stirred at all during the middle and later stages to preserve the carbonation from fermentation.
After 5 months of fermentation, the wine was drawn from the barrels and bottled in a lightly hazy state.

This wine, brewed to preserve its delicate and fine acidity, can be paired with a variety of dishes due to its soft texture characteristic of French oak fermentation.

This is the only wine from Yellow Magic Winery that explicitly states the use of antioxidants, but no sulfites are used other than for the sulfur treatment of the oak barrels.
