Rkatsiteli

Product details:

2024 / White / Dry

Produced in the Tsinandali microzone of Kakheti, this Rkatsiteli from Marani Sio family winery is made in the traditional qvevri style, expressing both the depth of the terroir and the grape’s classic elegance. Its amber color with soft golden reflections speaks of maturity, purity, and craftsmanship. The bouquet opens with notes of peach, apricot, and dried fig, layered with the warm, earthy undertones characteristic of qvevri aging. On the palate, the wine shows fine tannic texture, strong structure, and a long, graceful finish. Rkatsiteli’s natural firmness combines beautifully with the roundness imparted by time in clay, resulting in a wine of depth and composure. Naturally fermented with indigenous yeast and minimally sulfured for stability, the wine remains unfiltered — preserving its vitality, clarity, and the authentic character of Tsinandali. Marani Sio’s Rkatsiteli pairs beautifully with grilled fish, poultry, walnut-based salads, and lightly smoked cheeses. Its lingering finish and fruity elegance make it a contemplative wine, meant to be savored slowly.
