Dano’s winery Khornabuji Red

General Information

Dano’s Winery Khornabuji Red is a powerful red wine from eastern Georgia, produced by David Mosulishvili. The name Dano’s Winery refers to David and his wife Nona – together they form the heart of this small-scale wine project at the foot of the historic Khornabuji fortress.

The wine is a blend of local grape varieties that are vinified in the traditional way, but without qvevri. The result is a pronounced terroir wine with depth, structure, and character – a true expression of the landscape and the makers.

On the palate, the wine is dry and powerful, with firm tannins, lively acidity, and layers of dark fruit and spices. The finish is long, earthy, and balanced.
