WINEMAKING:
This wine is a classic Tsinandali that is a dry white wine made as a blend from autochthonous Rkatsiteli and Mtsvane grapes. The hand-picked grapes are crushed and the juice, after short skin contact, is fermented in temperature controlled high-quality stainless steel tanks.
TASTING NOTES AND FOOD PAIRING:
The smooth side of the Mtsvane grapes and the fresh and stormy vivacity of the Rkatsiteli grapes balance each other wonderfully. This harmonious and aromatic wine has a mineral note and light acidity. It is a wine that is easy to drink and pairs nicely with seafood and vegetable dishes.
