NORIA

Winery: Noria

Founded: 2010


Born and raised in Tokyo, Nori first learned about fine wine at his uncle’s Italian restaurant. After graduating from UC Davis with a viticulture and enology degree in 2002, he worked as a winemaker at several wineries in Napa and Sonoma. He started his own brand, NORIA, in 2010. Noria means “waterwheel” in Spanish. The image of water, nature and the basic energy of life associated with waterwheels overlaps with the elements of wine. The firework-like splash logo represents fun times in life shared with Noria wines.
