Toriibira
■Toriibira District
It is a very small area located on the southwest hillslope of Mt. Kashiwao. As it gets long hours of sunlight and also has a big difference in temperature between day and night because of the cool breezes blown down upon from Sasago-toge Pass, it meets all the conditions for grapes to ripen thoroughly. Strong flavor of the grapes grown from the clay soil mixed with gravels is reflected in its wine’s deep flavor. Part of the harvested grapes from this area gets fermented in small barrels.
