A food truck on Piment Street will offer a perfect dish for the cold Yatsugatake winter: wine hotpot. Inspired by “brasato” (*4), a popular Italian stew, this hotpot incorporates “Muscat Bailey A,” a representative Yamanashi grape variety and a native Japanese species. The ingredients include beef, which pairs well with the light tannins of “Muscat Bailey A,” and winter vegetables such as turnips and Brussels sprouts, enhancing the texture and sweetness of the dish. Enjoy the balance of the vegetables’ natural umami and the rich, smooth, fruity soup featuring “Muscat Bailey A.”
