Can't wait until fall! New release of "Summer Nouveau This year's lineup includes wines from Uruguay in South America

Vinos Yamazaki Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce the release of a new Nouveau from Uruguay, a first in the Japanese wine industry(*), in addition to an Australian Nouveau developed in collaboration with a brewery, in order to make people feel comfortable and refreshed with wine even in extremely hot weather.

(*) According to our own research

Summer Nouveau 2024

Vinos Yamazaki Co., Ltd. has many connections with wine farmers around the world and offers a unique assortment of products in response to consumer demand. Several years ago, wines from the southern hemisphere became popular, and when we released a nouveau of white wines from Australia, where the harvest is early, it became very popular and sold out. Many customers eagerly awaited the July 20 (Saturday) release.

This year, a winery from Uruguay in South America, which has been attracting attention in recent years for its high quality, has also taken up the challenge of producing a white wine nouveau, further increasing the variety of "Summer Nouveau" and drawing consumer expectation.

With the extremely hot weather expected to continue this year, the fresh and refreshing fruitiness of white wine Nouveau is attracting even more attention than last year.

At Vinos Yamazaki stores, the Australian Nouveau is scheduled to go on sale on Saturday, July 20 and the Uruguayan Nouveau in mid-August. Free tastings will be held in the stores to celebrate the release.
