Nareklishvili & Son's Winery 2019 Mtsvane Qvevri

Mtsvane Qvevri is made from the local “Kakhuri Mtsvane” variety which translates to the “Green from Kakheti” and has been cultivated in the mountainous Kakheti region in the east of Georgia for beyond time. Celebrated for its crisp acidity and citrusy profile, the grape takes nicely to qvevri fermentation where skins, pulp and pips all co-ferment for 3 to 4 months yielding a lively wine with aromas of dried fruit, ripe citrus, and a mouthwatering tang that finishes with a spice and salinity all its own. Grown on the regions iron rich soils, this natural “orange” wine is rich in  depth and character, both balanced and sound, velvety and full bodied after 67 months aging underground. Traditionally pairs with both fish and roasts.
