Katsunuma Budo no Oka stands on a gentle hill surrounded by vineyards in every direction. Forming a sanctuary devoted to grapes and wine, it serves as a powerful symbol of Katsunuma, one of Japan’s most important wine-producing districts. From this elevated vantage point, rows of vines ripple across the Kofu Basin, changing color with the seasons—from fresh green in spring to deep gold and crimson in autumn—creating a landscape often likened to “the Burgundy of the East.” At the heart of the complex is an underground Wine Cave, where roughly 200 wines selected and recommended by Koshu City are stored. Visitors can taste these wines using a dedicated tasting cup while choosing bottles to purchase, an experience designed to showcase the diversity and quality of local winemaking. Above ground, the panoramic wine restaurant pairs regional cuisine with Yamanashi wines, allowing guests to dine while taking in sweeping daytime views and, after sunset, a star-filled sky and glittering night scenery. For relaxation, the natural hot spring known as Tenku no Yu features an open, airy setting with views extending toward the Southern Alps, offering a selection of open-air baths, reclining baths, and a mist sauna. Accommodation is also available on site, enabling guests to stay overnight amid the vineyards and enjoy wine, hot springs, and scenery at a leisurely pace. Together, these elements make Katsunuma Budo no Oka a comprehensive destination where viticulture, gastronomy, wellness, and landscape converge.
