Why is Saperavi less known than Shiraz?

Why is Saperavi less known than Shiraz?

After the collapse of the USSR it has revived and advanced its wine industry showcasing its ancient traditions and native grape varietals to the world. Today its a fast developing industry leading the country's economic growth and showcasing its millennial techniques on the international wine market.

Here are 7 Reasons Why drinking Red Wine is Good for Your Health

Saperavi wine

Millions of people around the world love wines. It does feel good to pop open the cork after a long day at work. The good news is, when consumed in moderation, Saperavi wine can reward you with awesome health benefits. So, if you need a reason to raise your glass, here are seven!

Red Wine is Good for Your Heart:

With an ingredient list that includes flavonoids and other antioxidants, it's no wonder researchers have found that drinking red wine in moderation can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease by as much as 40%. From reducing inflammation to thinning blood, studies show that there are plenty of reasons to toast with this healthy libation.

Helps prevent Cancer:

As if we needed another reason to drink up! A recent study published have found a link between moderate consumption of alcohol like red wine and decreased mortality rates from breast cancer (and other types) in women. The research suggests that resveratrol, a compound found in red wine, may inhibit growth of cancer cells and their primary blood supply.

Keeps Your Kidneys Healthy:

A University of Michigan study found that the compounds in Saperavi wine can help keep kidneys healthy and slow down kidney failure that is caused by diabetes. Remember though, binge drinking won’t do any good.

Slows Down Memory Loss:

Another reason to raise your glass? A new study suggests that the chemicals present in red wine may have an effect on molecules that cause neurofibrillary tangles, or tau. Researchers also say it could reduce memory loss and protect against other types of dementia.

Keeps Your Teeth Healthy:

A study published by the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry suggests that the red wine and grape seed extracts will reduce the growth of bacteria in your mouth. This furthers helps minimise tooth cavities. However, after consuming your Saperavi wine, make sure to brush your teeth and get rid of those stains.

Stronger Bones & Tighter Skin:

Resveratrol has antioxidant properties, which may help fight off disease-causing free radicals that can damage cells, proteins and DNA - all mechanisms thought to be responsible for aging. This same substance may also protect against sun damage, which brings us to the next point.

Protects Your Skin from UV Damage:

Researchers have also found that resveratrol works to protect against sun damage, upping production of enzymes that fight harmful free radicals and regenerating cell structures damaged by them. Of course, you can't get these benefits unless you drink red wine in moderation. The key is to keep your daily intake at or below one glass, which provides about 200 milligrams of resveratrol. This is because the amount varies depending on the wine type and where it was grown.

So, do your research and purchase a premium quality, delicious Georgian Saperavi from a reputable supplier today!

Georgian Wines Have Finally Arrived

Georgian Wines Have Finally Arrived

By Christina Brandalise 

If you think about where in the world wine was first produced, you will most likely pinpoint (and thank) the Greeks or the Romans. However, a recent study of modern grapes showed that they all descended from a wild grape variety native to the Caucasus Mountains. Where are the Caucasus Mountains you ask? This lush green fertile region is located in Georgia, at the crossroad of Western Asia and Eastern Europe. And it is here that wine was “invented”, with not a grape crushing Roman in sight.

Introducing Georgian Wines, a selection of the very best Georgia has to offer from renowned producer, exporter and winner of several prestigious wine awards, Tbilvino. Brought to you by Tamada P/L, the only importers of Georgian wines into Australia, the Georgians have had over 8000 years of practice, with evidence of wine making dating back 6000BC. That’s a hell of a lot of wine making experience. Currently exported to over 30 countries word wide, I am surprised these fine wines haven’t made it to our shores sooner. Wine connoisseurs and wine lovers will appreciate the unique flavour and aroma derived from the native Georgian grapes.

 

A premium range is now available in Australia, comprising of 12 varieties online and at selected stores. With a sleek bottle and exotic looking label, these wines are a dinner party must, being both a crowd pleaser and conversation starter. Who wouldn’t want to try some wine from “where it all began?”.
