Japan's classics.
The 3 most popular wine tours in Japan. What each one is really like, who runs it, and what you will pay.
Japanese wine omakase in Shibuya: 5 native-bottle tastings with small plates near Meiji Jingu, guided in English for up to 12.
“This place is seriously cute and such a vibe. I loved that it’s in a quieter area with way fewer tourists. I was in Kyoto recently and it was sooo crowded I couldn’t relax at all, so this felt perfect.”
Visit Katashimo Winery, Japan’s oldest in the west, with a guided historic walk and tasting of three premium wines in 2 hours.
“Bellissima passeggiata tra le vigne, ottima la spiegazione della guida che ci ha portato per le strade intorno alla cantina. Alla fine del percorso abbiamo degustato tre bicchieri di vino con salatini dí accompagnamento.”
Sip wine or soft drinks and paint a seasonal acrylic artwork in Osaka’s Shinsaibashi, guided by Miyuki, then take your canvas home.
