    Wakayama Tanabe-shi Inaricho
    This vineyard is located a six-minute drive from the Nanki Tanabe Interchange on the Hanwa Expressway via National Route 42 and Prefectural Route 29. Located next to Domeki Park, it is the oldest tourist-oriented vineyard in the prefecture. The summers are cool with a large difference in temperature between daytime and nighttime, making this an ideal environment for growing grapes. The owners do everything they can to grow high quality, sweeter grapes. Visitors can enter the vineyard free of charge and buy as many grapes as they want. They may not eat any grapes inside the vineyard, but after paying, they can go to the rest area and eat the grapes they have purchased along with any food they have brought in. It is recommended that visitors put freshly picked grapes in ice water before eating them.

    お盆ごろいつも買いに行きます。 いつも自宅用は少し難ありで安いのを買い、進物用は少し高いですが大きな房でぎっしり粒がついているのを買います。 こんなところにブドウ園があるなんてびっくりするようなところにあります。

Guests can enjoy eating all the strawberries they can pick for 45 minutes and even make their own original strawberry parfait.

    From March to May, this place is suitable for harvesting a lot of fruit. I spent about 45 minutes here, not far from the train station. You can walk or use the bike to see the scenery along the way...
