Set in Katsunuma, Yamanashi Prefecture, heartland of grape cultivation, Okazaki Noriko, a high school senior and daughter of a grape farmer, reflects on her first encounter with Iwanaga Takeo, a star rugby player, three years ago in her family’s vineyard. Now, with her last summer vacation approaching, Noriko and her friends Kikuyo and Yuuko embark on a mission to confess their feelings to their crushes.
