Vachnadziani Classical Saperavi 2018, Georgia

Juicy Saperavi full of wild berries, spice and toasted oak.

Vachnadziani Classical Saperavi is a dry, medium bodied red wine from Kakheti, Georgia. It is 100% Saperavi with 14.5% abv.

Sourced from the 'Cradle of Wine' in Georgia's Kakheti Valley, Vachnadziani Classical Saperavi is a ripe red wine leading with aromas of wild berry, winter spice and vanilla. On the palate it's bursting with plums over hints of smoke and leathery tannins. Purity is preserved through stainless steel fermentation, with only 8% of the blend matured in new French oak barrels for 8 months. The grapes were hand-harvested from a moderately humid vineyard at 320m above sea level in the Kakheti Valley.
