First Georgian wine, first orange wine, I'm in uncharted territories here 😊. Spoiler alert : I like it very much.
I have issues describing the nose as it's completely new to me : there is a bit of honey, a bit of menthol or petrol, some white flower notes too and a tiny touch of apricot. Wow
Here comes a palate with tannins 😮 a strong acid drive, a good width with matter and a nice thickness, honey and apricot and then that huge spherical mid palate where tannins kick in with a drying thing which creates some asperity and triggers a never-ending finish with that dry mouthfeel and the same honey, apricot touches.
I usually associate honey and apricot touches to sweet wines or some chenin crus. This is very dry, but with a weight and a nice presence. I'm a bit late on the trend but I'll look into orange wines some more (and Georgian wines too) — 6 years ago

Do-Re-Mi – Unfiltered Amber Dry Qvevri Wine 2021 (Rkatsiteli)
Kakheti – Georgia 🇬🇪
Overview
Made from 100% Rkatsiteli, this unfiltered amber wine is crafted in traditional qvevri vessels with extended skin contact. The Do-Re-Mi winery embraces a natural, minimal-intervention approach, letting the grape and terroir speak for themselves. (Educational note: Leaving a wine unfiltered preserves texture, color, and flavor complexity — a hallmark of many natural amber wines in Georgia.)
Aromas & Flavors
Aromas of dried apricot, quince, and orange peel, lifted by chamomile and herbal tea notes. Underneath, hints of walnut, honey, and earthy spice add depth and rustic charm.
Mouthfeel
Medium-bodied with firm tannins from skin contact. Textured and slightly cloudy due to being unfiltered, with lively acidity that keeps it balanced. The finish is long, savory, and grippy.
Food Pairings
Excellent with walnut-based Georgian dishes, lamb stew, or roasted eggplant. Also pairs well with Middle Eastern mezze, lentils, and aged cheeses.
Verdict
A bold, rustic amber Rkatsiteli — raw, textural, and deeply authentic. The 2021 vintage shows both freshness and grip, delivering an unpolished charm that speaks to Georgia’s ancient qvevri tradition. 🍷
Did You Know?
Rkatsiteli is Georgia’s most planted grape variety, prized for its naturally high acidity — making it ideal for both crisp whites and structured amber wines. — 9 months ago
Wow, what a surprise! Light and brisk. Honeysuckle big time. No after taste and a great finish like very faint citrus but no fruity. Wonderful in summertime with an ice cube. Lovely!! — 4 years ago

Smell has some thyme lavender, gold orange color, thyme oregano taste, some acids and a musty naturalness that carries through with a metallic final finishing tannin — 6 years ago
