Details and technical informations about Winery Simon Chkheidze's Obchuri Tsolikouri.
Discover the grape variety: Knipperlé
Dry, lively and neutral whites, with a pale golden robe, a taut palate with preserved acidity on undemonstrative citrus and white flower aromas. Discreet and productive rustic profile. Once more widespread, today virtually extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections and a few patrimonial Alsatian parcels, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic heritage of Alsace. Autochthonous Alsatian white variety.

Signature indigenous whites: Tsolikouri (the most planted — citrus, apple, flowers, honey), lively, floral Tsitska (in sparkling), ample Krakhuna (pear, apricot). Otskhanuri Sapere is the flagship red: deep and tannic (black cherry, plum, herbs, leather).
