Kindzmarauli Semi-Sweet Saperavi 2022
This wine is a brilliant purple in the glass. Its nose smells like blueberry, blackberry and currant, as sweet as you think fruit should be. The palate offers a semi-sweet taste, full fruit flavors, with a racy acidity and a firm set of tannins. This wine will pair well with a meat dish, particularly pork or ham. It's not a bad choice for the holiday meal, either. — a month ago

Delicious. Citrus hits you from the beginning. Just a hint of salt keep it delightful throughout. — 7 months ago
Pheasant's Tears
Rkatsiteli 2019
This is the Tibaani bottling.
On the nose there’s a wonderfully complex mix of treacle tart, apricot pastry, sticky toffee pudding, Manuka honey, warm terracotta pot, flapjack, gingerbread, yellow raisins and toasted almonds.
The palate shows spicy apricot, turmeric and gingerbread character, the tannins are sapid, firm but chalky and quite fine, certainly a wine that works best with food.

Dry Red SB Tavkveri 2017
This is a delight and drinking gorgeously. Reminds me of sitting at a cafe in Tibilisi years ago. A good memory i’ve been chasing for almost a decade. Strong dark red color with dried cherries, leather, and chocolate on the nose. Structure is great, the tannins are not too intense and acidity is just right. Prunes and spice, a little earth. Rich. — a year ago

Wow- this is old! and yet it’s still fully intact. No longer bright or fruity, but resinous and saline; plum, Turkish delight, dark Turkish dried apricot, medium tannins, very slight acetone. — 17 days ago
