Tasting Notes

The "Moonlight Harvest" (known in Japan as Tsukika) is an incredibly rare and expressive white wine crafted by one of Japan's most celebrated winemakers. Harvested exclusively in the cool of the night to preserve its natural vibrancy, it opens with an elegant bouquet of green apple, delicate white flowers, and subtle hints of acacia honey and vanilla. On the palate, it delivers a remarkably well-defined, stretching acidity perfectly balanced by a concentrated, creamy fruitiness. The wine finishes with a long, satisfying elegance, making it an exceptional pairing for fine cuisine.

Overview

Domaine Mie Ikeno is a highly revered, artisanal winery located in the high-elevation Yatsugatake region of Yamanashi Prefecture. The founder and master winemaker, Mie Ikeno, studied enology in France and returned to Japan to produce world-class, 100% estate-grown wines. The "Moonlight Harvest" is her signature Chardonnay. The grapes are meticulously hand-harvested at midnight, ensuring they are picked at their absolute coolest temperature to lock in crisp acidity and pure fruit expression. The wine is then fermented and aged for 12 months in small French oak barrels, utilizing a state-of-the-art gravity-flow system to preserve its delicate nuances. Due to its extremely limited production, this wine is a highly sought-after gem for serious collectors.
