``Konosuru'' wine, whose trademark is a bicycle, can be seen everywhere. In fact, this bicycle mark embodies Konosuru's ``concern for the environment.'' Great cost performance! Konosul wine is famous for its ``eco-friendly wine.'' This time, I would like to take a look at Konosuru's efforts towards organic and sustainable products.
What is Konosul wine?
Conosul is Chile's leading wine producer. Established in 1993. Their motto is "no family trees, no dusty bottles, just quality wine". We are leading the Chilean wine industry with innovative and new ideas and technologies.
The thoughts behind Konosuru's bicycles
At Konosul's vineyards, we avoid using tractors and cars as much as possible, instead using a more natural method of moving around the vast vineyards: by bicycle. Farmers move around their vast farms on bicycles for the sake of the environment. From this appearance, the "bicycle" became Konosuru's trademark. The bicycle represents Konosuru's ``efforts toward the environment''.
Konosuru's attempts at organic and sustainable
As symbolized by the ``bicycle,'' which embodies the idea of ``respecting the environment,'' Konosuru is committed to the environment in a variety of ways. Among the many initiatives, I would like to introduce some of the most representative ones.
①Cultivation method that values the power of nature
Konosul's grape cultivation employs a system called "comprehensive pest control." "Comprehensive pest control" is a system that uses more natural methods to exterminate fertilizers and pests and weeds without using chemical pesticides. For example, we rely on geese to exterminate pests. This method involves releasing geese into the vineyard and having them eat the pests in the vineyard.
②Organic vineyard
Konosul has been focusing on organic cultivation since 1999. At present, the organic field has expanded to nearly 300 hectares. Wine made from grapes grown in a natural environment allows you to enjoy the concentrated, natural flavor of the grapes.
③Sustainable bottles
Conosul's entry-level wines are bottled in bottles that are 15% lighter than normal to reduce carbon emissions during transport. Lighter bottles require less energy to transport, which reduces carbon dioxide emissions. The glass bottles are also recyclable, and the labels are made from recycled paper. Sustainable = A bottle made with sustainability in mind.
Conosul Wine's "Organic Series"
Konosul wine boasts high quality and eco-friendly technology. Among them, the most environmentally friendly one is definitely the ``Organic Series''. Konosul's organic series wines are produced in vineyards without the use of any chemicals. Fertilization and insect control are also done using natural methods such as using geese and using fertilizers derived from nature. Wine made from grapes grown freely and vigorously using natural methods. You can enjoy the rich, concentrated flavor of the soil. We are particular about not only the wine, but also the packaging. The bottle is a lightweight bottle that is 100% recyclable. The label is made of recycled paper. Ink is environmentally friendly. Red wine corks are made from natural corks with no markings. And so on...the examples are endless. Konosuru Organic is made with a focus on organic and sustainable products.
Conosul Wine “Organic Series” Recommended Wines
``Konosuru Organic'' allows you to enjoy such a natural and concentrated taste. Even though it's a lot of attention to detail, you can enjoy it for about 1000 yen. The reason why you can enjoy high quality wine at this price is because of Chile's blessed environment. Another great thing is that there is a wide variety and you can enjoy many grape varieties. I would like to introduce some recommended Konosuru Organic products.
Recommended Konosuru Organic ① Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir represents the Burgundy region of France. However, Conosle's Pinot Noir is not outdone. An elegant and unique taste made in a dedicated cellar. It has a deep red color and a sweet aroma of strawberries and plums. It has a gentle taste with gentle acidity and soft tannins. Foods that go well with it... It goes well with chicken and quiche. It also goes great with Beef Bourgogne (beef stew), a traditional dish from the Burgundy region. If you add a little Pinot Noir wine as a secret ingredient, it will go well with wine.

The next recommendation is grapes from Burgundy. It's "Chardonnay". Chardonnay is characterized by its taste, which changes greatly depending on the climate and soil. Therefore, you can enjoy the unique characteristics of "Chilean Chardonnay" with this organic Chardonnay. Chardonnay grown in warm regions has a slightly tropical aroma and a rich flavor. The color is golden yellow, with a fruity aroma centered around citrus, and a slight mineral feel. The taste is complex and fresh. It has a well-balanced acidity.
