The new kiwi white wine (left) and sparkling wine (right) vintages |
The second “pressing” in 2019 of wine made from kiwi fruit—a specialty product of the Mitaka Fruit-Growers Association—is now on sale at fifteen stores around the city as well as the JA Tokyo Musashi Mitaka Greenification Center.
The new white and sparkling versions follow the year’s first offering, an unfiltered nouveau variety released in February. Both the white wine and sparkling variety use Hayward kiwis, which have an excellent sweet-sour balance. This year’s white wine entices you with a gentle sweetness, while the sparkling wine boasts a crisp, fresh taste. These two are already popular, so they are bound to sell out soon.
A rosé version is scheduled for release around June.
