Hamiang Wine Valley of Doore Village is located in the ridge of Jirisan mountain in Hamyang-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. It takes about 20 minutes from Tongyeong-Daejeon expressway Hamyang IC by car. You can meet an extraordinary wine tunnel here. It is the corporation under the Ministry of Korea Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries which was established in 1999. It produces Sanmeoru, wine and other processed foods. You don't need to pay admission fee or parking fee. You can look around the wine tunnel and the ripening room, and sample a wine and purchase it. It is not a well-known tourist spot, but amazing.

I can feel the smell of spring. Most buildings and gardens of Doore Village are European style. They are so cute and pretty. Okay, here we go!

There is an underground space at the entrance of the village, and wine storage room inside. There is a huge stainless steel container. It is so chilly inside. The temperature is always maintained at 12 degrees. It would be the best summer resort, I guess. Sanmeoru extract harvested on September is matured in the container at least three years. One container can hold the amount of 15,000 wine bottles with 750 ml. What a huge amount!

I can't endure a chill of the storage room for a long time. :-) Now I am going to visit the wine tunnel on the hill after getting out of the storage room. The European building on the right side is so beautiful, huh? There is a seminar room for group tourists, and an accommodation next to the valley.

The entrance of the wine tunnel looks like the entrance of the mine of coal-mining town in Taebaek. It is so chilly at the entrance of the tunnel. It would be so cool in summer!

Wow! Huge oak containers line up on both sides. It is picturesque! The wine matured for three years in the storage room is matured again for a year in an oak container. And then, it is stored in the bottle. This tunnel is only 10 degrees, which is colder than the storage room. It is so interesting.

Some oak containers have a wine, but others don't. I think wine is being matured in the containers now. I want to try it, but I will sample a wine next.

I think wine bottles are storaged at the end of the tunnel. An Italian proverb says “Wine has a truth.” It would mean that delicious wine cannot be made with a lie or a trick, I guess.

Wow! Is it 12 years old wine? I thought it would be an empty bottle, but it had wine.

You can find a cafe on the backside of the hill after getting out of the wine tunnel. The buildings are so exotic.

The cafe sells wine, beverages and ice cream. They are all hand-made, but they don't show off. But you would buy a cheap wine after sampling it. :-)

But you cannot buy a wine without knowing the taste. I drank a glass of wine that I want to buy. I purchased 12 degrees wine that was produced in 2007 since I like dried wine. It is more sour than grape wine. I like it. The brand name of the wine is “HamyAng”. If you find a wine with that name, it would be produced here.

There are so many foods made of Korean wild grapes. There are snacks, beverages and juice besides wine. The cheese with Korean wild grapes would be the perfect with wine. The cost is also reasonable.

There is a play ground for kids at the corner of the cafe. They can make cookies, soap, watch and wine on their own. No kid participated in the event since I visited there on weekday morning. So I show you the picture of the last summer.

You can find Korean wild grapes farm on the right side of the mountain slope after getting out of the cafe. Steel structure has been established to make Korean wild grapes grow well. The combination of Jirisan mountain and the windmill is amazing. I think that was made for tourists.

HamyAng wine valley of Doore village is located in the foot of Jirisan mountain. It is not a well-known tourist spot, so it is very quiet. It is the best place for families and couples to taste delicious wine, and enjoy various events. I strongly recommend it.
