Exclusive Wine Dinner at Hotel Intercontinental Tokyo Bay

In a special event presented by Sommelier Co., Ltd, the official importer of the renowned Chilean winery Viña Marti, wine enthusiasts will have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to engage with the legendary winemaker Pascal Marty. Scheduled for September 26, 2025, this exclusive winemaker's dinner at the Teppanyaki restaurant 'Takumi' promises an unforgettable culinary experience, highlighting Martin's innovative approach to winemaking.

A Legacy of Excellence

Founded by Pascal Marty in 2008, Viña Marti stands out as an avant-garde winery in South America, notably in Chile. Marty’s rich history includes roles at elite estates like Château Mouton Rothschild and Opus One. His philosophy blends tradition with innovation, allowing him to create wines that resonate with both the old world and the new.

The focus of the evening will be on the groundbreaking 'Goutte d'Argent' series, a collection born from Marty's unique process of ultra-low fermentation. By employing Japanese sake yeast and fermenting at extremely low temperatures of 5 to 10°C, the wines present an unparalleled delicacy and aromatic finish that harmonizes beautifully with Japanese cuisine.

An Evening of Pairings

Attendees will savor five unique wine varieties, expertly paired with Teppanyaki dishes, bringing out the best of both the food and wine. The dinner not only gives a taste of Martin's exquisite wine range but also offers a chance to hear directly from the winemaker about his philosophy and creation process.

Marty's Vision and Impact

According to Marty, the 'Goutte d'Argent' is more than just a new wine; it represents a philosophical blend of Eastern and Western influences. The result is a sensory experience that goes beyond the conventional definitions of New World wines and natural wines. Attendees can expect to explore the complexities of aromas and flavors produced through careful technological and emotional connections, helping to illustrate the concept of a 'next classic' in the world of wine.

In his own words, Pascal stated, "Japan has always held a special place in my heart. The sophistication of Japanese consumers and their deep understanding of wine inspire me. This market is mature, and I admire how traditional Japanese values resonate within my wine portfolio, especially in our best seller, 'Goutte d'Argent.'" He aims to share his passion for wine and bridging cultural traditions through this exceptional event.
