Four Key Wines Including the World's Only Omija Sparkling Wine

Hosted by Asia Economy, the '2023 Global Wine and Food Trip' will be held from August 25 to 26 at the Floating Island on Sebitseom in Seocho-gu, Seoul. Major domestic wine manufacturers, importers, and food companies will participate, providing an opportunity to taste various regional wines and enjoy food pairings. The winery brand 'Ominara' from JL Agricultural Corporation, representing Mungyeong, Gyeongbuk, will showcase products made with omija (Schisandra chinensis), which offers five distinct flavors: sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and spicy, demonstrating the competitiveness of Korean wines.

The flagship wine promoted by Ominara is 'Omi Rose Gyeol.' It is the world's only omija sparkling wine made from omija harvested in September, using the traditional sparkling wine production method (primary fermentation followed by secondary bottle fermentation). The company emphasizes that it preserves the attractive color and harmonious five flavors of omija, pairing well with various dishes and serving as an excellent aperitif.


Omi Rose Gyeol embodies the harmony of omija's five flavors and the desire to form good connections through omija sparkling wine. The term 'Gyeol' symbolizes the image of a string on Joseon Dynasty white porcelain iron-painted bottles, represented on the ?pernay bottle.


Chilled to 5?8 degrees Celsius, pour Omi Rose Gyeol into a sparkling wine glass, enjoy the lively bubbles and aroma, then hold a small amount in your mouth to savor the refreshing sparkle stimulating under the tongue and the five flavors experienced on the tip of the tongue.


This wine has been served at banquets during major domestic events such as the 2012 Seoul Nuclear Security Summit, the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Paralympics, and the 2022 visit of U.S. President Joe Biden to Korea. It also won the Grand Prize in the Korean Liquor Awards' Korean Wine category consecutively in 2019 and 2020.


Additionally, at this event, you can experience Ominara’s main wines, including 'Omi Rose Yeon,' which fuses the Korean omija with Western sparkling wine production methods inspired by the legend of Gyeonwoo and Jiknyeo and the Roman Cupid myth, as well as 'Omi Rose Premier Wine' and the entry-level still wine 'Omi Rose Together Wine.'
