Grace Wines Toriibira Vineyard Koshu

Grace Wines Toriibira Vineyard Koshu 2021 is a refined Japanese white that balances ripe fruit intensity with delicate freshness. From a sunny, south-facing site in Yamanashi, it offers a broader mouthfeel than some of Grace’s lighter Koshu expressions while retaining the variety’s understated elegance.

Citrus aromas mingle with subtle herbal and spicy notes, leading into a concentrated, mineral-textured palate. The fruit has satisfying depth without becoming heavy, supported by firm acidity and a gentle bitter edge that adds definition. Its appeal lies in the balance between ripeness, freshness and a quietly savoury character.australianwinereviews.

Suggested pairings include sashimi, steamed fish with ginger, prawn tempura or lightly grilled scallops. These delicate dishes would allow the wine’s citrus and mineral qualities to remain in focus, while its rounded palate offers enough substance for dishes with a little extra texture.
