Grape Variety/Vinification:
This wine is made from the indigenous Saperavi grape, the most iconic red grape from Georgia. The wine is traditionally fermented, often in Qvevris (underground clay pots), which gives the wine a unique expression. Saperavi is known for its deep color and powerful structure, with sufficient aging potential to offer complexity and balance.
Tasting Note:
The Gurashvili Saperavi has a deep ruby color and offers aromas of ripe blackberries, blackcurrants, and cherries, with subtle hints of herbs and tobacco. The taste is powerful and full-bodied, with firm tannins, ripe dark fruit notes, and a slight spiciness. The long, intense finish provides a beautiful balance between fruit and structure.
Wine/Food Pairing:
This wine pairs perfectly with grilled red meats, such as steak or lamb, and is also delicious with stews, game, or <strong-aged cheeses. Its robust structure and fruity intensity make it suitable for barbecue dishes or rich, spicy dishes from the Caucasian cuisine.
Serve this wine at 18-20°C
