Profile & Story

This dry amber wine is made from an indigenous white grape variety from the Kakheti region, known as “Kakhuri Mtsvane.” “Mtsvane” means “green” in Georgian, referring to the grape’s color. It is prized for its aromatic qualities and refreshing acidity. The handpicked grapes ferment for three months in qvevri with 100% skin contact, followed by six additional months of aging in qvevri. Its complex aromas, vibrant flavors, and smooth texture make it a delightful choice for those seeking a unique and traditional wine experience. Importer: S&F Wine Imports

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Deep amber-gold with vibrant orange hues and a natural haze — a hallmark of unfiltered qvevri wines with extended skin contact. Aromas: An intense, multi-layered bouquet of dried apricot, quince, and chamomile, interwoven with walnut, honeycomb, and earthy clay tones. Flavors: Generous and complex, unfolding in rich layers of stone fruit, honey, tea-like spice, and a distinctive savory minerality. Texture & Structure: Full-bodied and textural, with firm, balancing acidity, refined tannic grip, and a long, persistent finish that resonates with fruit and earth.
