I participated in the grape harvest of Kuratei Winery in Okagami Kawasaki.
I did the harvest again follow on Chardonnay on September 3rd.
I am always surprised at seeing this vineyard near my home because here is in Tokyo Metropolitan Area.
20 volunteers were gathered at the vineyard afternoon.
Mr. Yamada, who is the owner of the winery, taught us how to pick up the grape.
The grape condition was almost perfect.
It is a really surprising that such fine Merlot grows in Kawasaki.
We were very carefully pick up only fine clusters.
Also, I did “triage” before the grapes went to grape cases.
About 250 kg Merlot were picked up.
We did a very good job!!
After the harvest, we had a small harvest party at the garden in the winery.
We did a very good job!!
