Rkatisteli-Chardonnay, Telavi Wine Cellar, 2009

Made from Rkatsiteli and the French Chardonnay varieties of grape grown in Kondoli. A very light straw colour, with a slight greenish sparkle to it. First and foremost an aroma of small apricots (prunus armeniaca) and a slight whiff of cream, but then a definitive aroma of crème brûlée. A high alcoholic content. Excellent as an apéritif with a long-lasting flavour.
