Yuzu Wine: Sake or Wine?

In the April issue of Bon Appetit, you'll find a mention of yuzu wine and a bright blue bottle of Kiuchi Yuzu Wine (similar to what is pictured here). What is it, exactly, you may wonder. Yuzu fruit is a rare Japanese citrus, which offers a complex flavor of lime, lemon, grapefruit, and mandarin orange. Yuzu wine is simply fermented yuzu juice. Still confused? Bon Appetit writes "think Riesling crossed with sake". You can find out more about yuzu wine at the Kiuchi Brewery website.
