Sake country has a fledgling wine sector with vineyards that focus largely on the production of table grapes. This archipelago of islands lies on the edge of Asia in the Pacific Ocean.
Vine cultivation dates back to the 8th century during the time of Nara. It was mainly used for the production of table grapes. Thereafter, Buddhist missionaries spread the vine throughout the country, without notable will to produce wine.
In the 16th century, European wine was imported for the consumption of the Japanese elite. But it was forbidden during the following centuries because of the implementation of an isolationist policy. In recent decades, viticulture has undergone great changes. From the 1970s, wine consumption exploded in Japan in connection with the westernization of society, which led to a sharp increase in local wine production. However, the majority of vines are cultivated for the production of table grapes.
