Grace Wine

Grace Wine, founded in 1923 in Katsunuma, Yamanashi, is one of the most respected and well-established wineries in Japan, helping to redefine Japanese winemaking. With over a century of history, it is renowned for its dedication to the Koshu grape, a native varietal with over 1,000 years of heritage in Japan.

Situated in Yamanashi, Japan's oldest and largest wine region, Grace Wine benefits from diverse vineyards, including the high-altitude Hishiyama district, the gravel-rich Toriibira district, and the Misawa Vineyard in Akeno Town, known for its abundant sunshine and cool climate. Each vineyard is meticulously managed using innovative techniques like vertical shoot positioning and organic practices, ensuring wines of exceptional purity, balance, and authenticity.

Grace Wine has earned a reputation for excellence, marked by groundbreaking achievements on the global stage. In 2013, its “2012 Gris de Koshu” became the first Asian wine to win a Gold Medal and Regional Trophy at the Decanter Asia Wine Awards. This was followed by the “2013 Cuvée Misawa Akeno Koshu,” which made history as the first Japanese wine to win a Gold Medal and Regional Trophy at the Decanter World Wine Awards. Their “Extra Brut” sparkling wine further distinguished the winery, becoming the first in Asia to receive a Platinum Award at the Decanter World Wine Awards in 2016. They have won several other accolades, and all these highlight Grace Wine's commitment to quality and innovation.

Blending tradition with modernity, Grace Wine continues to lead the development of Japanese winemaking. Their portfolio extends beyond Koshu to include exceptional reds, whites, and sparkling wines, each crafted with meticulous care to showcase Japan’s unique terroir. As a symbol of craftsmanship and authenticity, Grace Wine brings the essence of Japanese winemaking to the world, offering wines that embody elegance, precision, and a profound respect for nature.
