The grape juice and skins are fully fermented and macerated together for 5 months in a Qvevri (clay amphora buried into the ground) which gives the wine intense straw colour, deep tannin taste and structure. Its acidity and bright flavours make it exceptionally versatile. It is a strikingly aromatic wine that offers a deep rich bouquet of pine, herbs, pear and quince. The palate is well balanced with spice and tea flavours. Great with barbequed meats and spicy Asian dishes. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georgia  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kakheti  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tbilvino \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dry White  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020 \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750 ml  \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeal: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eSynthetic cork by Nomacorc - \u003cspan\u003efrom sustainable, renewable sugarcane-based raw materials.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFully recyclable with the lowest carbon footprint of any closure offered to the wine industry today with up to 25 years wine preservation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety: \u003c\/strong\u003eRkatsiteli (100%).
