The Kobe Luminarie is held every year in December in Kobe to commemorate the Great Hanshin Earthquake of 1995 where over 6000 people tragically died.
The Luminarie is a beautiful light festival in downtown Kobe, and about 3-5 million people visit it each year for the two weeks it runs.
The Kobe Luminarie wine on the other hand isn't so good.
It has a light nose and is really dry and tannic on the palate.
It also has a vegetal taste to it, more than a fruity one.
Overall it's ok, but not really that good. Nice label though.
