Plum, blackberry, touch of resins and slight oak. Dry, mid+ acidity and mid tannin. well made but a little lack of concentration, structured red.

Awful. Like a wet dog standing next to a gasoline-fed trash fire.

2017 edition is sadly a bit less nice than the 2016.

A quite nice wine from Georgia - relatively limited experience with these wines, but clearly a strong winemaking tradition. Nice and inky dark in the glass, with lots of dark berry fruit. Medium bodied with medium minus tannins and good acid on the finish. For the price - and with Georgian food in Brighton Beach - a nice wine for sure.

This is not the Merlot blend. Much nicer
is the 100% Saperavi grape edition. Really pleasant wine. Full bodied. Only thing that prevents a top rating is that its taste does not develop in the mouth. Maybe i should have left the bottle unopened for a year or two.

From Georgia. Saperavi varietal. Very good balance between acid, fruit and astringency.
