Description

Jumong Black Raspberryju is a 16% ABV fruit wine from Jeollabuk-do that combines Korean rice with domestically cultivated bokbunja (Korean black raspberry, Rubus coreanus). The higher ABV compared to many bokbunja wines (often 12-14%) gives this expression a fuller body and more assertive tannin extraction from the berry skins, producing a wine that leans closer to a fortified or dessert-wine structure. Jeollabuk-do - particularly the Gochang region - is Korea's premier bokbunja-growing area, where the coastal microclimate and well-drained sandy-loam soil produce berries with concentrated sugar and pigment. The product has an extensive competitive history: recognition at the Korea Traditional Liquor Awards spanning 2010 to 2014, a five-year run that demonstrates sustained excellence rather than a single outstanding vintage.
