Born from Hospitality,
Rooted in Place
Founded in 2011, Hanatoro takes its name from a centuries-old Japanese lantern festival — "the path of light and flowers" — celebrated each spring in ancient Kyoto. Heritage, craftsmanship, and community define everything we do.
We produce a single wine each year, crafted exclusively from estate-grown fruit at Octave Vineyard. From vine to bottle, every decision reflects precision, restraint, and unwavering attention to detail.
"In our hearts, we are hospitality people. Our goal is to produce a world class, single vineyard wine, to be shared with family and friends in the hospitality industry."— Steve Thomson, Co-Founder
