Vinoterra is the name used at the German-owned Schuchmann winery for qvevri-made wines. This Kisi wine is light gold in colour, with restrained, refined aromas of dried wild flowers and dried apricot. On the palate, too, it is understated and elegant, all nuances and hints but without ever slipping into obviousness. Again, the subtle floral, faintly walnutty style of this aristocratic Georgian variety is well to the fore.
