Oldest Georgian brand in Canada.
The best qualities of the famous ancient Saperavi grape are expressed in this particular vine. Dark colour, complex aroma, tones of currants and cherry match harmoniously with the pleasant tones of oak.
Aged in Caucasian oak barrels for 12 months.
Viticultural history ~8,000 y.o. Vineyards at ~450 m altitude near the river. Biggest part of the grapes from PDO Kindzmarauli micro-zone. Carbonate alluvial soils rich in black/blue slate.
Serve at 20°C, decant if softer structure is desired. Pairs well with red meat dishes, especially lamb and cheese platters.
