In the glass

Full-bodiedMedium tanninMedium acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: dried plum, walnut

Palate: dried plum, walnut

A full-bodied amber from the rare Khikhvi grape, six months on the skins in qvevri, with dried plum and a distinct walnut character.

What it pairs with

  • Badrijani nigvzit
    The wine's own walnut character is echoed by the walnut paste.
  • Roast pork with quince
    Dried plum and fruit-cooked pork are a natural amber-wine pairing.
  • Aged sulguni
    Six months of skin tannin wants a salty matured cheese.
