Discover the grape variety: Dorona
An autochthonous Italian grape variety that was cultivated for a very long time, particularly in the Venice region, where it almost disappeared. It seems to be known only in this region and therefore completely unknown in all other wine-producing countries. According to recently published A.D.N. analyses, it is the result of a natural intraspecific cross between Garganega and Tuscan malvasia or malvasia del chianti, which explains why it has long been confused with its mother, Garganega.

The wine region of Kakheti
Kakheti is the most important wine region in Georgia in quantitative, qualitative and even historic terms. Almost three-quarters of the country's wine Grapes are grown here, on land that has been used for viticulture for thousands of years. Kakheti is home to some of the oldest human habitations in the entire Caucasus region, and archaeological findings have suggested that wine has been produced here for several thousand years. The region's strong relationship with wine and Vine was captured in Georgia's famous hymn 'Thou Art a Vineyard', written in the 12th Century by King Demetrius I.
The word of the wine: Acidity
When present without excess, acidity contributes to the balance of the wine, giving it freshness and nervousness. But when it is very high, it becomes a defect, giving it a biting and green character. On the other hand, if it is insufficient, the wine is soft.
