Mtsvane 2015

Pear and almond in the nose,

Like most orange wines, this come on a bit strong, and astringent. Medium bodied with anise, almond skin, and a nice sharp lingering tannic end.

@Trixie Orange wines (white varietals with extended skin contact) can be interesting in so many,differently ways. Try them whenever you can!

When I say I want an orange wine—this is what I want. It is clean, it is tannic, it is complex and it conjures up the mystique rightfully accompanying a wine aged in qvevri buried in this crazy planet we call Earth. It tastes of bitters, but also honey, and an resinous substance—let’s call it myrhh. Note to self: replenish incense stocks and refresh sense memories of such things. The tannins may manhandle you a bit but think of them as leading the dance, not cutting in where they aren’t wanted. — 5 years ago
