Create harmony through wine.

A drink that makes the conversation flow.

One bottle to send to an important person. Wine, which can create happiness in our lives, can soften both time and the mind. That is the idea we have pursued for the 80 years since our establishment.

Our history, started from Komagatani in Osaka, a place surrounded by abundant food culture. Just as wine ages in our barrels, our history has aged with the various connections and ideas of the people we have served.

Local grape farmers, brewers and the customers who love Kawachi Wine have all come together to make a wine that can only be made here, special to our land, rather than trying to recreate western style wine. Furthermore, our wine has been tailored to suit the local Japanese households, which has helped to connect humans to each other.
With those ideas in our hearts we will continue working to create wine well into the future.
