The wine region of Georgia
Historic cradle of the vine (8,000 years, UNESCO), 500+ native grapes. Signature Saperavi as a teinturier red: dense, deep reds with signature notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, liquorice, leather, spices and a smoky touch, firm tannins and lively acidity - great ageing. Rkatsiteli in white (~45%), lively and structured (citrus, apricot, honey). The millennia-old qvevri tradition (buried jars): "ambers" on skins with notes of dried fruits, walnut, black tea.
The word of the wine: Rootstock
American vine on which a French vine is grafted. This is the consequence of the phylloxera that destroyed the vineyard at the end of the 19th century: after much trial and error, it was discovered that the "pest" spared the roots of the American vines, and the technique became widespread.
