(Yamanashi)
As the amount of rainfall was less than usual, we had
many daylight hours which led each grape variety to grow
favorably. And with the weather staying good during the
harvest time, eventually grapes were able to be harvested
in healthy condition with less disease than usual.
(Nagano)
It was hot in the summer with little rain and more daylight
hours. Early in September the temperature rose a little
bit, and we saw grapes growing perfectly. We were also
favored with fine weather throughout the harvest season
with little autumn rain. The grapes were harvested in
well-matured and healthy condition with very little disease.
