Fermented with partial whole-bunch fruits to maintain the freshness, this wine was aged on skins for 6 months in qvevri, before it was naturally clarified and lightly filtered. Amber in colour with kumquat, sun-dried apricot and marzipan on the nose, candied orange peel, dried peach and tangerine zest on the palate, supported by muscular but polished tannins, thanks to controlled extraction. Fantastic depth, the lovely dried apricot notes follow to the long finish. Produced by brothers Levan and Georgi Chychynadze in Kakheti.
