Details and technical informations about Winery Lile's Цинандали (Tsinandali).
Discover the grape variety: Salagnin
Simple dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections for its heritage value, it belongs to the ancient grape varieties whose commercial spread has almost vanished and which are studied for their genetic and historical interest. Rare white grape, poorly documented, cultivated in negligible quantities.

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: Trader-breeder
In the major wine regions, the négociant does not simply buy and resell the wines but, from very young wines, carries out all the maturing operations until bottling.
