Simple, supple and fruity reds to drink young, with a clear ruby robe, soft tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity on undemonstrative red fruit aromas. Now virtually extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of French vineyards and forms part of the patrimonial varieties under study. Rare French black variety, formerly grown in the South-West.

The wine region of Georgia

Historic cradle of the vine (8,000 years, UNESCO), 500+ native grapes. Signature Saperavi as a teinturier red: dense, deep reds with signature notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, liquorice, leather, spices and a smoky touch, firm tannins and lively acidity - great ageing. Rkatsiteli in white (~45%), lively and structured (citrus, apricot, honey). The millennia-old qvevri tradition (buried jars): "ambers" on skins with notes of dried fruits, walnut, black tea.

The word of the wine: Hat

Solid part (marc), composed of pips and skins (sometimes of the stalk), which forms at the top of the tank during fermentation. The pigeage consists in breaking this cap to put back in suspension these elements and to favour the exchanges between the juice and the skins.
