Old Vine Dry Amber Mtsvane 2014

Oldest winemaking place in the world, 8,000 years ago. Historically, Georgia has so many unique barrels because of their ancient certain practices. The Rkatsiteli (AR-kata-telli) grape in Middle Eastern Kakheti is fermented in Qvevri barrels. 12.5% some skin-contact and some oxidation. A bit hot and zesty as of right now, but this wine transforms. — 10 years ago

Qvevri Amber Dry Rkatsiteli 2015

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)

@Daniel Maquin Certainly sounds like an Orange wine from your excellent tasting notes. Probably extended skin contact in an amphora.

Tanini

Qvevri Dry Kisi 2016

Специи, известка, молотый черный перец, прополис, хурма, курага, цедра апельсина, чай, коньячные ноты, грецкий орех. Мощно, объемно и выразительно, с богатой текстурой, хорошей кислотностью и ещё молодыми, но аккуратными танинами. Вначале в носе выпирают не совсем чистые тона стройматериалов, но потом они уходят и остаётся интенсивная перечность, наложенная на фактурную фруктовость. Интересно, хоть и не без вопросов. — 7 years ago

Reserve Qvevri Rkatsiteli 2014

(17.5/20) Насыщенный, яркий аромат черного чая, сушеных плодов ананаса и манго, мёда, шиповника с нотами карамели и табака. Сухое, тельное, с умеренной кислотностью, ощутимыми приятными, бархатистыми танинами, весьма насыщенное во вкусе. Долгое послевкусие. Красивое, нетипичное для Грузии по уровню качества вино из квеври. — 9 years ago
