Fattoria da Sasino

Fattoria da Sasino was started by Michiaki Sasamori, a native of Hirosaki. Sasamori-san actually started his career as a chef, and spent two-and-a-half years working at Michelin-starred restaurants in Italy. At 30 years old, her returned to Hirosaki to start the now-famous restaurant Osteria Enoteca da Sasino. Years later, in 2010, Sasamori-san decided to start making wine as a way to contribute further to the community, and develop Hirosaki as one of Japan’s premier winemaking regions.
