Simple, lively whites with a pale golden robe, an airy palate with preserved acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Productive and disease-resistant. Now marginal, surviving in a few heritage plots in France, it belongs to the old hybrids preserved in variety collections for their genetic and historical interest. A French white hybrid grape bred by Albert Seibel in the early 20th century.

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: Free-run wine
The free-run wine is the wine that flows out of the vat by gravity at the time of running off. The marc soaked in wine is then pressed to extract a rich and tannic wine. Free-run wine and press wine are then aged separately and eventually blended by the winemaker in proportions defined according to the type of wine being made.
