<Our Philosophy>

We are pursuing a perpetual dream : to bring out the latent potential of Koshu grapes nurtured in the Japanese climate and to directly confront challenges.
It is our greatest goal and reward to write the first page in Katsunuma's wine-making history of our wines becoming internationally respected and bringing joy to our customers all over the world.

There are many wine producing countries known widely for their longstanding tradition of high quality wine production.
While respecting the many local wine makers of the world, we pursue the maximization of the wine making potential of the Japanese natural climate. We are striving to produce our locally fermented Katsunuma wine which is made within the local climate and culture which cannot be made anywhere else.

With this belief in our winery, while we pay due respect to the history of Katsunuma's viticulture and wine making, we believe that it is time to boldly put an end to out-dated wine making systems in order to blaze a new path in wine making in Katsunuma, Japan, and produce internationally competitive wines.
Our ARUGA BRANCA wine range was the pioneer product which first set foot in this uncharted territory. through these efforts, we expect that wine making techniques used today in Katsunuma, where ordinary wines are still produced , will improve and will aim at producing premium wines for the whole world, taking advantage of the blessings of nature and steadily furthering and testing our perpetual pursuit of improved cultivation and fermentation techniques.
Our mission is to pursue the maximum potential of Koshu grapes and deliver first-class premium wine to the people of the world. It is our dream to revitalize the local wine industry through this project.
