Is this made with Aspergillus oryzae?

Yes. The only ingredients are white rice and aspergillus oryzae

Is this good for rice wine?

Yes, this can be used to make rice wine (sake)

What is the shelf life of this?

The shelf life is 6 months from manufacture and typically 5 months+ on purchase from Amazon. This is because the packaging is compostable and starts to break down after this length of time. If stored in an air tight container the koji should last for a year.
