This traditional qvevri wine was made from Rkatsiteli and Mtsvane kakhuri grapes grown in the village of Zemo (Upper) Khodasheni near the town of Akhmeta. A handsome, amber-coloured wine with a bouquet featuring notes of cooked quince and dry leaves along with hints of bergamot at the end. This is a full yet stinging wine which should be served with hearty traditional Kakhetian meat dishes.
