In the glass

Full-bodiedMedium tanninMedium acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: ripe cherry, red berries

Palate: ripe cherry, red berries

Saperavi from Kisiskhevi village made in qvevri: dark ruby, complex and concentrated ripe cherry and red berries, full-bodied with a smooth tannin structure and a long aftertaste that will age in bottle.

What it pairs with

  • Mushrooms
    Named by the producer; qvevri Saperavi's earthiness meets mushroom directly.
  • Steak
    Teliani's second listed match, and smooth tannin at this weight wants red meat.
  • Aged guda cheese
    A salty hard cheese rounds the tannin of a wine built to age.
