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: Black Grenache
Grenache is a black grape variety that originated in Spain and is one of the great quality varieties of southern France. Sometimes vinified on its own, it is most often blended with one or more other Rhone or southern grape varieties with complementary qualities such as Syrah, Mourvèdre, Carignan or Cinsault. Its wines are warm, with aromas of red fruits (cherry) and spices; they oxidize with time. Vinified alone or in very large proportions, Grenache Noir also makes great natural sweet wines in Roussillon (Rivesaltes, Banyuls, Maury) and in the Rhône Valley (Rasteau).
