Description
The Saperavi grape, a Georgian marvel, is cultivated with
reverence in the Akhoebi micro-zone (PDO), yielding a wine of profound character. Hand-harvested from venerable vines aged
15 to 45 years, each grape is a testament to the land's fertility.
Following pressing, the juice, along with grape skins, stalks, and pips, is entrusted to the Qvevri—an amphora-like sanctuary buried in the earth—where it undergoes a natural fermentation.
After the malolactic fermentation, these ancient vessels are sealed, marking the commencement of an aging process of 6 to 8 months. This maturation bestows upon the wine a dark ruby hue, as intense as its origins. Such is the traditional Georgian method of Qvevri winemaking, a practice enshrined as intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO, resulting in a wine that is not just consumed, but celebrated.

About this company
In the fertile villages of Georgia, the history of wine tradition finds its origin. This region stands as evidence of discovering the oldest cultivated grape seeds, marking the genesis of winemaking and a tradition that spans 8,000 years. In 2013, the revered Georgian tradition of aging wine in “Qvevri” was rightfully inscribed into the UNESCO World Register of Intangible Heritage. Nestled in the serene village of Kardenakhi within Kakheti region, our winery traces its origins to the 19th century, while its contemporary architecture emerged in the 1960s. Our diverse portfolio includes PDO wines, table wines, aged wines, and the cherished Georgian traditional “Qvevri” wine.
