First Georgian wine, first orange wine, I'm in uncharted territories here 😊. Spoiler alert : I like it very much.
I have issues describing the nose as it's completely new to me : there is a bit of honey, a bit of menthol or petrol, some white flower notes too and a tiny touch of apricot. Wow
Here comes a palate with tannins 😮 a strong acid drive, a good width with matter and a nice thickness, honey and apricot and then that huge spherical mid palate where tannins kick in with a drying thing which creates some asperity and triggers a never-ending finish with that dry mouthfeel and the same honey, apricot touches.
I usually associate honey and apricot touches to sweet wines or some chenin crus. This is very dry, but with a weight and a nice presence. I'm a bit late on the trend but I'll look into orange wines some more (and Georgian wines too) — 4 years ago
Saperavi grape from Georgia. Deep purple color with aromas of blackberries, black cherries, vanilla, cola, with a touch of black fruit jam. Full body, high tannin, 15% alcohol with the acid to keep it all in balance but a little short on the finish. Great treat to try a new grape from an underrepresented corner of the wine world. — 5 years ago

On the nose there’s dried fruit & honey, yet the palate offers completely different notes of saline & savory flavors. There’s definitely texture, but the tannins are well integrated resulting in an entirely different mouthfeel than most skin contact whites. Would make for an outstanding pairing with a myriad of foods! — 6 years ago

Гранат, вишневый сок, красная слива, свекла, окисленное яблоко, железо, кровь, каучук, тертый лист, специи. Средне-полное тело, мягкое и дружелюбное, но с хорошей кислотностью и аккуратными танинами. Ярко, насыщенно и энергично, при этом сочно и нетяжело, с живым фруктовым ядром, небанально. Вначале чуть броско и прямолинейно, чуть позже убеждает своей оригинальностью и витальной харизмой. — 5 years ago

Smell has some thyme lavender, gold orange color, thyme oregano taste, some acids and a musty naturalness that carries through with a metallic final finishing tannin — 4 years ago
