Light, simply fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, soft tannins and a light palate with moderate acidity, featuring understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet rustic profile. Nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value; it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and is among the patrimonial varieties under study. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.

The wine region of Tsinandali
Flagship appellation of Georgian dry whites in Kakheti, Alazani valley between Greater Caucasus and Gombori, symbol of refinement since the Chavchavadze estate in the 19th c. Signature strict blend: Rkatsiteli (85% min, structure and acidity) and Mtsvane Kakhuri (15% max, floral). Chiseled whites with notes of citrus, white apple, peach, white flowers, sweet almond and mineral touch, fresh and balanced palate — short oak ageing. Greenish straw robe.
The wine region of Kakheti
Cradle of amber and orange wines, vinified in qvevri (buried clay jars, UNESCO). Skin-macerated Rkatsiteli whites: signature notes of dried apricot, walnut, honey, orange peel and black tea, fine tannins and controlled oxidation. Deep, tinctorial Saperavi reds with black fruit, plum, spice and firm tannins, age-worthy. Also Mtsvane and Kisi in white, fresh and floral.
The word of the wine: Shipping (liquor)
In champagne and wines made according to the traditional method, wine is added before corking to fill the void in the bottle created by disgorging. This added wine is often sweetened by sugar incorporated in variable proportions according to the style of wine sought (see dosage). Syn.: liqueur de dosage.
