Vintage 2012 - brambles, lots of minerals, quite modest but with rondeur. Top of Georgië from the Saperavi grape, the wine got 5 months ripening in clay amphora's before ripening in woorden barrels.

Strong wine, that went well with Chakhani Georgian stew. Powerful peppery wine, and unusual.

This is the best of Georgia. Truly good, sumptuous on the palate. With the quite exorbitant price :-)

Fantastic wine. Full bodied, dry with great back bone and excellent finish. My first wine from Georgia, south of Russia. Saparavi grape....a first as well

Really enjoyed this Georgian (and I'm not talking Bulldog country) full bodied red. Paired with an awesome meal at the Georgian restaurant Darbazia in Moscow. One of the best wines I've had during my travels in Russia.

First tasting of a wine from the Republic of Georgia. Moderately acidic (tannins), taste of wild berries. Perfect with today's lunch of roasted sardines.
