Raw Wine Tokyo 2025

RAW WINE TOKYO is coming back for its second year in early May, bringing together natural wine producers and wine lovers for a two-day tasting and learning experience. Held at the Tokyo Ryutsu Center, the fair will feature more than 100 winemakers from over 15 countries, including some making their Japan debut from places like Croatia, China, and the Czech Republic.

Founded by Isabelle Legeron, the first French woman to earn the title of Master of Wine, RAW WINE is the world's largest natural wine fair. Events are also held in cities across Europe, North America, and Asia, and the Tokyo edition made headlines in 2024 for its sold-out debut. The 2025 edition will expand on that success with a larger venue, new producers, and an updated lineup of tastings, seminars, and food pairings.

Guests can explore a wide range of organic, biodynamic, and low-intervention wines, including bottles not yet available in Japan. In addition to tastings, the event will offer private seminars aimed at deepening knowledge of natural winemaking and the stories behind the labels. A sake section will also return, featuring brewers who use organic rice and environmentally respectful farming methods.

Additionally, RAW WINE places a strong emphasis on transparency. All wines are clearly labeled with ingredients and production details, allowing guests to better understand what goes into each bottle. The event also fosters direct conversations between winemakers and attendees, creating a space for learning and exchange.
