Kitsi & Kitsmatsuri – Kisi Orange Wine
Discover a playful yet sophisticated expression of Georgian winemaking with TAMADA GWS Kitsi & Kitsmatsuri Kisi, a modern Georgian orange wine crafted from the rare indigenous Kisi grape variety from the renowned Kakheti region of Georgia.
Golden amber in colour with lively brilliance, this wine opens with elegant aromas of orange blossom, honeyed fruit, apple blossom, dried apricot, and delicate sweet spice. The palate is smooth, textured, and fruit-driven, offering layers of ripe stone fruit, citrus peel, herbal complexity, and a subtle savoury edge. (The Buyer)
Beautifully balanced acidity and gentle tannins create a soft yet structured mouthfeel, leading into a long, refreshing finish with lingering floral and honeyed notes. This is an approachable introduction to traditional Georgian amber wine styles while maintaining freshness and elegance.
