(Wine) Made in Japan
Japanese wine connoisseurs have enjoyed imported wine for years, but some are now choosing wine made in their own country.
Suntory Holdings Ltd., a major producer of whiskey, beer and soft drinks, is trying to upgrade the quality of its wines this year on the 100th anniversary of its winery in Yamanashi Prefecture.
The company said it is developing wines by strengthening technical exchanges on grape cultivation and fermentation with a French winery in Bordeaux. Hokkaido Wine based in Otaru is also making wine using grapes grown on its own land or grown by farmers under contract.
When it comes to making wine, Japan is a late comer--but they are coming on strong!
