Kobe wine made using grapes grown in Kobe
``Kobe Winery (Agricultural Park)'' (hereinafter referred to as ``Kobe Winery'') is located about 30 minutes by car from Sannomiya, the center of Kobe. This facility is located on a small hill in Oshibedani, Nishi Ward, Kobe City, and has a site as large as eight Koshien stadiums.
If you are going by public transportation, it takes about 20 minutes by bus from Seishin Chuo Station on the Kobe Municipal Subway. The Wing Shinki trains on the 120 and 27 lines are conveniently located near the entrance of Kobe Winery, as they run inside the parking lot of Kobe Winery.
As the word "winery" suggests, there are vineyards and a wine factory on the premises, where wine from Kobe is produced. Wine making at Kobe Winery began in 1983. Tatsuo Miyazaki, the mayor of Kobe at the time, suggested making wine to promote Kobe beef, a specialty of Kobe.
During the wine-making season, you can see the machinery in action.
The factory building where bottling is done can be freely viewed through the glass.

The Seto Inland Sea climate, with little rain and plenty of sunshine, like Kobe's Nishi and Kita wards, is the perfect place for winemaking, and Kobe Winery and other contracted farmers in Nishi and Kita wards are cultivating grapes specifically for wine. It has started.

The contracted farmers also went to Europe to study grape cultivation methods, so the varieties grown in Kobe are mainly European grapes. The reason for the deliciousness of Kobe Winery's wine is that the grapes at Kobe Winery are close to the factory, so they can make wine using fresh grapes.
Recommended wines you can buy at Kobe Winery
We would like to introduce some of the popular wines sold at the Kobe Winery wine shop.

For wine beginners, we recommend Kobe Winery's classic ``Kobe Winery Select'' series (1,650 yen each). The alcohol content is about 11 to 12 degrees. It has a light taste and no bitterness, making it an easy wine to drink even for first-timers.

For wine lovers, we recommend ``Benedixion'' (3,520 yen each). This wine is made using grapes harvested from the highest quality fields among the many fields, and then hand-selecting only those in good condition and fermenting them in barrels.
By the way, the 2016 red wine became a hot topic when it was served at the G20 Summit banquet held in Osaka in 2019.
If you're looking for wine to give as a gift, how about the ``Nekokoto Living'' series (2,800 yen each) with cute labels? The concept is ``wine inspired by a peaceful and happy day spent with cats.'' There are four types: ``Bengal of the Prairie'', ``Munchkin of the Afternoon'', ``Siam of the Sunset'', and ``Persia of the Midnight'', so if you are unsure which one to choose, please ask the staff about your preferred scent and taste. Let's.
How about a gift for a cat lover?
The wine shop also sells snacks that go well with wine. In addition to canned tsumaya and rare cheesecakes made with Kobe wine, the store also carries cheese from Rokkosan Farm, one of Kobe's popular tourist spots. Please give it as a souvenir along with wine.
Recommended for families with children! There is also a square with a barbecue venue and playground equipment.
Although "Kobe Winery" is not just a wine facility. There are many places within the park where families with children can enjoy themselves, including a barbecue venue, a plaza with playground equipment, go-karts, and places where you can play putter golf.
You can also bring your pet into the park, so please make this a great place to go on an outing with your dog.

The barbecue area is covered so you don't have to worry about it even on rainy days. You can also bring your own food, and we also have an empty-handed plan for those who want to enjoy a quick barbecue. The menu also includes beef from Kobe and vegetables picked that morning.

At Kobe Winery, when it's time to prepare wine, the aroma of grapes wafts through the grounds.
