Saperavi rcheuli qvevri is a rare and precious wine produced in a limited number of carefully numbered bottles. Saperavi grapes, in addition to being among the best known in georgia, are the most suitable for vinification in qvevri, the typical terracotta amphorae. The grapes, coming from vineyards planted in 1990 at the foot of the caucasus mountain, are crushed and then left to macerate on the skins for 3 and a half months. The wine shows an intense ruby red with garnet reflections. The olfactory palette is complex: wild berries in jam and macerated flowers, at first, then spices, animal and earthy notes. On the palate, it has a remarkable structure, excellent acidity balanced by intense fruitiness, and some savory components. The young tannic texture is perfectly integrated into the body. Pair it with beef steaks, roast veal, gouda cheese, or salami boards.
