WINE DESCRIPTION
Kakhuri Gvinis Marani's Saperavi is a firm and structured red wine coming from the historic Kakheti region of Georgia. The winemaking process involves fermentation in qvevri, large clay vessels buried underground. This helps to maintain a stable temperature and creates a gentle extraction resulting in a wine with a distinct style, characterized by its deep, dark color, robust tannins, and vibrant acidity. It pairs well with hearty dishes such as grilled meats, stews, and aged cheeses.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Kakhuri Gvinis Marani Saperavi pours a deep, inky purple with garnet reflections, hinting at its intensity.The nose is rich and expressive, with aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants, and ripe plums, layered with hints of earth, and a touch of spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and robust, with bold flavors of blackcurrant, dried figs, and a subtle smokiness. Firm, well-structured tannins provide depth, balanced by a lively acidity that adds freshness.
