Jintaro started his wine career in restaurants. After his stint in restaurants, he enrolled in Oenology school; he soon spent time training in various parts of the world such as Waipara, New Zealand, Burgundy, and Yamanashi in Japan. Finally, he was drawn to Alsace in 2012 where he worked with Domaine Josmeyer and Domaine Hurst. After spending time at these estates, he knew that is where he wanted to be. His career, like many of the other small young growers, started off with buying grapes from his friends and borrowing cellar space. Now, he makes only a few wines, but he makes them count.
