Perhaps the most modern, Western-style winery in the valley, featuring a long tasting bar and glass walls allowing you to see the fermentation tanks. Good location if you are on a walking tour of Katsunuma. May look like a hipster cafe but is actually the pet project of a local semiconductor producer. It is still early days, but will the technological prowess and attention to detail translate to wine?
