Yama no Tannat is the kind of wine you rarely find elsewhere in Japan. Exhaustive comparative analyses of growing conditions abroad vs. here in Japan led to the importation of this little known red grape variety. Encouraging results have followed, with the wines from this grape producing deeply colored, highly structured wines for aging.
A mature example would be perfect with a classic Japanese wild boar hotpot dish. For those in a more western frame of mind we’d recommend a venison or beef stew.
