Osamu Uchida, born of the 1977 vintage, grew up in Hiroshima but was educated in French culture from a very young age – his parents were wine merchants! He was barely in his twenties when he decided to head off to the land of Molière to immerse himself in French language… and wine! By the end of his first stay, it was the welcome he’d received from the many vignerons he visited that convinced him to return for another course of study – viticulture and oenology. After a training course in Vayres, Uchida participated in internships in natural winemaking at several estates from Savoie to Côte-Rôtie to Banyuls. After initially returning to Japan to work for an importer, the desire to make his own wine in France finally got the better of him. His colleagues in natural wine would suggest several regions for launching his estate – but above all, anywhere but Bordeaux! And so, naturally, in 2015 Osamu settled in… Pauillac! “I wanted to challenge myself and do something atypical,” he recalls. Well, you've done it Osamu!
Sulphites-free wine for aficionados
Strong and very fragrant nose on notes of exotic fruits, honeysuckle, acacia and orange zests. Fresh and smooth palate. A turbid wine, to leave to rest vertically in the fridge for 24 hours before tasting, so as to let the lees settle. A disconcerting cuvée with a sublime nose.
Minimal sulphites
A floral and fruity nose, with blackcurrant, undergrowth, violet. Palate: the juice of the Merlot perfectly balances out the tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon, for an aromatic fullness particularly powerful and fresh, enhanced by a fine length.
Sulphites-free wine
A nose both floral and fruity, with redcurrant, peony, and a touch of toast. On the palate, the 2023 vintage takes it up a notch: Uchida’s style has evolved and matured, with a velvety texture and perfectly structured, integrated tannins. The whole remains smooth and fruit-forward.
Minimal sulphites
Notes of blackcurrant, black tea, dried prune... Perfectly structured on the palate, with supple tannins that highlight the fruit. Japanese precision in Médoc country. To be waited for if you have the patience, and decanting recommended in its youth.
Minimal sulphites
Expressive nose combining green apple, exotic fruits, honeysuckle, acacia, and candied orange zest. On the palate, a burst of tangy freshness with vibrant tension. A wine that breaks free from classic Bordeaux norms, much to our delight!
Sulphites-free wine
A delightfully expressive rosé fizz with loads of character: red berries, wild strawberries, and a fresh herbal touch. Fine, abundant bubbles, with a delicate acidity on the palate. A vibrant, harmonious wine that evolves beautifully with each glass.
