A different taste of Japan 🍇
Japan’s w**e country offers more than what is in the glass.
In Katsunuma, Yamanashi, a w**e festival brings together local w**es, vineyard culture, and the joy of celebrating a region’s harvest and traditions.
As the season moves north toward Hokkaido, the vineyards enter another chapter of the Japanese w**e calendar.
These festivals can be a wonderful way to experience Japan beyond its familiar landmarks—connecting w**e with local culture, people, food, and place.
Festival dates are seasonal and limited, so if you’re planning a trip to Japan, it’s worth seeing whether one fits into your itinerary.
This is the first of a series exploring Japanese w**e travel: next, historic w**eries, followed by beautiful accommodations and ryokans that make a w**e-country escape even more memorable.
Travel thoughtfully. Discover a different side of Japan.
