ფერაძე-რქაწითელი ქვევრი/კასრი 2019

Product details:

2019 / Weiß / Trocken

The wine is made by the traditional Kakhuri method in qvevri from the Rkatsiteli grape variety, which is planted in the village of Alaverdi in the Kakheti region. Wine was fermented with skin for 5 months and then aged in French oak barrels for 10 months. It is characterized by an intense amber color with a golden hue. The varietal aromas of Rkatsiteli are enriched with the tones characteristic of barrel aging. Aromas of baked apple, quince, conifers, chamomile, and dried apricots are pronounced. The taste is also quite balanced, with velvety round tannins and pleasant dried fruit tones.

Given the wine's age, it is in good shape to drink now, although it has the potential to age in the bottle for a few more years. It would be ideal to taste it with grilled poultry meat and vegetable ragout.
