Tasting Notes

Dark ruby with deep purple reflections. Intense nose of dried cherry, black currant and earthy minerality from the qvevri. Powerful on the palate with firm, structured tannins and a long, persistent finish that evolves in the glass.

Food Pairings

Aged cheeses, grilled lamb with rosemary, beef short ribs, or dark chocolate. Decant 30 minutes before serving at 16-18°C.
