In the glass

Full-bodiedMedium tanninHigh acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: creamy vanilla, exotic spices

Palate: toasted almond, dry sherry

Rich on the nose with creamy vanilla and exotic spice, this dry white delivers toasted almond with echoes of dry sherry, all of it from the clay rather than from wood.

What it pairs with

  • Chicken
    Listed first by the winery; the wine has the weight for roast bird.
  • Grilled tuna
    The producer names grilled tuna, and the oxidative almond note suits a meaty fish.
  • Vegetable dishes
    Pheasant's Tears third listed match; spice on the nose suits Georgian vegetable cooking.
