Kakheti Rkaciteli Blend 2015

Best skin-contact Georgian orange I’ve had (available from the local wine shop). Funkier than Dilao. Excellent everyday natural wine.
Had this the day Ari got her haircut. Soundtrack: Incubus, Deftones, Smashing Pumpkins.

Manavi Village Mtsvane

Had this Georgian Orange in Old Tbilisi at a boutique wine store behind Hotel Ambassadori. Sampled many wines there but this one really stood out for its uniquness. Smells like raw apple after you've finished the glass. Truly remarkable. — 9 years ago

I assume the convection they talk about relates to near constant motion of fine lees, right?

Yes, & some relate it to equalization of temperature as well

Kakheti Saperavi 2016

Georgian reds can be rustic and uneven, but this is drinkable and well-integrated. Reminds me of a Roussillon. For skeptics. — 8 years ago

Rkatsiteli

A nice display of Georgian Amber wine. Very interesting without overwhelming tannins. For lack of better terms, with less fruit and more funk. — 8 years ago

Pheasant's Tears

Rkatsiteli 2015

Never in my life have I encountered a beverage like this. This is truly like liquid stone and stone fruit skin in the absolute craziest way. I don’t really know what to do with it but I will be back for more if for none other than shear interest. Not a quaffing wine and by no means is this fun, this is the most serious wine I have ever encountered. Not sloppy and not flawed. Georgian shamanism at its most psychedelic. — 8 years ago

Kvaliti Otskhanuri Sapere Tsolikouri 2014

Ok now ready to rate...like many of the qvevri aged Georgian wines, this seems to develop 'backwards?' it starts kind of fallen apart w young ripe fruit, lacking mid-late structure, missing acid...and then...all shows up. — 10 years ago
