A story behind the bottle...

Tevza, Goruli Mtsvane, Amber 2019

Goga Tevzadze, the winemaker at Tevza, is on a mission to explore, preserve and promote indigenous varietals from the Kartli region of the Republic of Georgia. 

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Wild fermentation starts at the room temperature. Spontaneous fermentation stops when wine is dry, which is followed with natural MLF fermentation.  Maceration and skin contact for 5 months.

TASTING NOTES
Melon, orange, and dried apricot notes balance overtones of honey and a firm tannic structure.
