In the Winery
Harvest is over and wine is aging in barrel. The caves are filled with the aroma of the 2011 vintage.
In the Vineyard
The vines have gone dormant and pruning begins.
Furoshiki
A traditional Japanese technique for perfectly folding a silk cloth to hold anything, but ideally a wine bottle!
Occasions
Recent visitors and special events at Kenzo Estate: Ms. Margrit Mondavi.
FUROSHIKI
wrapping with silk
Before bags were common in Japan, the versatility of a length of fabric was meticulously exploited by the skilled hands of merchants and shoppers alike. Simply and precisely folding and knotting a square of silk into a variety of sacks and wrappings, Furoshiki holds, protects and presents.
This particular Furoshiki makes an elegant presentation of a very special bottle of wine.
