Prestigious small region in north-west Georgia in the high Caucasus valleys, altitude vineyards on schisto-calcareous soils.

Rare native Usakhelauri and Otskhanuri Sapere. Textured Tsolikouri in whites.
The word of the wine: Dismantling
After devatting, the pomace is removed from the tank. If this operation is carried out manually, it is important to ventilate the vat well to avoid the risk of accidents due to the presence of carbon dioxide.
