Marani Tsinandali is a distinguished offering from the renowned Kakheti region in Georgia, hailing specifically from the Tsinandali Specific Viticulture Area (SVA). Its allure lies in its meticulous crafting process and exceptional varietal composition, predominantly Rkatsiteli (80%) and Mtsvane (20%). Harvested at peak maturity by hand at the end of September and early October, the grapes undergo a gentle journey from vineyard to bottle. After being softly de-stemmed and macerated on skins for 8 hours, the juice is slowly fermented in stainless steel tanks at precisely controlled temperatures. Thirty percent of the wine is aged in oak barrels for four months, imparting depth and complexity. The resulting wine, released in September following the vintage year, boasts a harmonious blend of flavors and a distinctive character, emblematic of its moderate continental climate and the expertise of its producers.
