In the glass

Full-bodiedFirm tanninMedium aciditySweetLong finish

Aroma: sour cherry, forest berries, raisin, oak

Palate: raisin, dark berries, oak spice

Teleda's fortified dessert Saperavi: sour cherry and forest berries with a raisined core, oak barrel tones for polish, full-bodied with complete tannin and a long finish.

What it pairs with

  • Desserts
    The only pairing the producer gives, and the wine's sweetness and tannin want sugar opposite them.
  • Dark chocolate
    A fortified Saperavi has the sweetness and structure to survive cocoa bitterness.
  • Churchkhela
    Grape must and walnut are the Kakhetian dessert this wine was built alongside.
