Named after a small village nestled in the Rioni Gorge of Georgia’s mountainous Racha-Lechkhumi region, this semi-sweet wine is crafted from thoughtfully selected Tsolikouri grapes. Its warm climate contributes to a marked natural sweetness. Exhibiting a clear pale gold hue, it presents prominent aromas of kiwi, green apple, peach, and roasted nuts. The lively bouquet harmonizes elegantly with a smooth, velvety sweetness. An excellent companion to desserts, spicy Asian cuisine, or enjoyed chilled on its own.
