2024 Domaine Takahiko “Yoichi Nobori” Passetoutgrain

The 2024 Domaine Takahiko “Yoichi Nobori” Passetoutgrain is a finely etched, highly individual red from Hokkaido, inspired by Burgundy’s classic Passetoutgrain style but shaped by Japanese precision and cool-climate purity. Made from Pinot Noir and Zweigelt, it offers lifted red cherry, plum, spice, floral notes, and a subtle savory edge. The palate is bright, elegant, and energetic, with silky tannins and a long, quietly persistent finish. It is a wine of finesse rather than power, and its charm lies in its transparency, balance, and distinctive sense of place. Ideal for drinkers who love detail and nuance.
