Kanpai Wines and Meadowbrook Farm
Founded with the 2017 vintage by Peter Chiang and Azumi Kubo, Kanpai Wines brings a food-first, Japanese-influenced point of view to Napa Valley. Winemaker Steve Matthiasson works with Meadowbrook Farm's Oak Knoll Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, alongside select Napa and Sonoma sites, to make balanced wines built for the table.
How to taste Kanpai
Meadowbrook Farm is a private estate rather than a conventional public tasting room. Kanpai's current public visit route is through Vintner's Collective in downtown Napa, with reservations available from the winery's official visit page. Private Meadowbrook visits may be offered as a member benefit, but availability is limited, discretionary and should be confirmed directly with Kanpai.
Why collectors seek it out
Kanpai pairs Matthiasson's restrained, farming-led style with Peter Chiang's culinary perspective and Azumi Kubo's Japanese naming and label language. The core range includes Hi No Tori Cabernet Sauvignon and rosé, Aki No Mori Chardonnay, Mizu No Oto Pinot Noir, Hikari No Hana Red Wine and Tsuchi No Koe Estate Cabernet Sauvignon.
