Osamu Uchida
Bordeaux 'Serenade' Blanc
Serenade is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc (60%) and Sauvignon Gris (40%). The wine was wild-fermented with a 21 day de-stemmed maceration before being matured for 1 year in acacia (for the Gris) and stainless steel (for the blanc) barrels.
Born in Hiroshima Japan in 1977, Osamu Uchida grew up with parents who owned a wine shop and a rice-farmer grandfather. The family heritage as farmers and wine merchants inspired Osamu's passion for France and its vineyards. His dream of making wine led Osamu to move to France in 1999 to study viticulture and oenology in Bordeaux. When studies ended in 2001, Osamu continued his studies at several wineries in the Côte-Rôtie at Clusel-Roch, in Banyuls at Vial Magnere, in Bordeaux at L’Arrivée Haut-Brion and several more vineyards in the Loire and Savoie. He eventually landed in Bordeaux and found a small and isolated plot in Cissac-Medoc.
Why Bordeaux? According to Osamu: “Everyone was telling me don’t go to Bordeaux, anywhere else is great. So I decided to explore Bordeaux. Then people advised me ok if you go to Bordeaux go to the right bank not the left bank. So I settled in Pauillac on the left bank."
Since purchase, Osamu has meticulously farmed organically since 2015 and since 2019, biodynamically, and his wines are all about finesse, elegance and drinkability. He is absolutely one of the most exciting and adventurous winemakers in Bordeaux, shaping the future of a region that perhaps has been a little overly obsessed with the past.
