The wine region of Abkhazeti
Autonomous Georgian region on the Black Sea coast (western Georgia), subtropical humid climate, varied soils. Tsolikouri is the signature native white: ample and textured with yellow apple, pear, citrus, white flowers, honey and a mineral note — often vinified in a qvevri (ancient buried clay jar) with extended maceration, yielding an amber hue and oxidative notes. Chkhaveri is a floral, spiced rosé; Tsitska is crisp and Aladasturi structured as complements. Caucasian UNESCO heritage.
The wine region of Black Sea Coast
Large Bulgarian wine region along the Black Sea coast (30% of national vineyards), mild climate with long summers and gentle autumns, ideal for whites. Millennial indigenous Dimyat: vivid and delicate white with citrus, white fruits, flowers and vanillin-saline maritime note. Aromatic Red Misket: floral white with rose, geranium and muscat. Chardonnay, Cabernet and Pinot Noir as complement.
The word of the wine: Cinsault
Cinsault is a southern black grape variety that can be found in the blends of most Mediterranean appellations, but most often as an accessory grape variety. It is undoubtedly most present in certain rosé wines (in Corbières, Côtes-de-Provence, etc.): it gives these wines highly appreciated aromas of strawberry, peach and raspberry. In vin de pays (IGP), it is often vinified on its own, usually as a rosé.
