APÉRO NISEKO Wines & Bar
Your Mountain Journey of Taste
Between the slopes and the village lights, we pair Hokkaido’s remarkable ingredients with a curated selection of wines from France and Japan for relaxed, quietly luxurious evenings.
Concept / philosophy
APÉRO NISEKO Wines & Bar brings the ease of French apéro culture to Niseko. Think great wine, generous food, and real conversation in a cosy bar where locals, seasonal staff, and travellers share the same counter.
Our kitchen serves casual French dishes built around Hokkaido organic shorthorn beef, wild game, and farm vegetables designed for sharing. Our sommeliers connect these flavours with wines from all over the world, so each visit feels like a small journey between mountains and vineyards.
WINES / LA CAVE
Carefully curated by our sommelier team, our Niseko cellar holds over 100 wines ranging from natural wine producers to classic labels as well as special & rare vintages. Wines are available by glass starting from approximately ¥1,700, allowing guests to explore according to their mood and curiosity.
Whether you’re celebrating a powder day or winding down after work, we guide you to a glass that fits the moment.
Menu & la carte
Our menu is built for sharing after a day on the mountain. Chef Nadia draws on Hokkaido’s game and winter vegetables - from our famous Hokkaido pork terrine, organic shorthorn beef carpaccio, slow-braised venison, special wagyu beef steak, and local cheese board as well as other dishes that balance richness with freshness designed to pair with our curated wines.
Drop in for a quick drink and a snack, or settle in and build a full mountain feast.
TEAM / L'EQUIPE
