ORGO cuvée Kisi, Mtsvane, Rkatsiteli. Produced by: Teleda Ltd. Kisiskhevi, Telavi, Georgia. Купаж Киси, Мцване, Ркацители. С большим трудом ввезено. В Москве не сыскать. Изготовлено по европейской технологии. Для меня пахнет моим любимым, очень типичным именно Киси: цитрусовые, груша, белые цветы, нектарин, цедра апельсина, чуть аниса, специи. Умеренный фруктовый вкус с мягкой кислотностью, минерально. Люблю и с большой нежностью всегда вспоминаю Кахетию, Алазанскую долину и г-на Дакишвили 🧡 — 6 years ago

Wow this is different. Nose satsuma segments, stray apricot, rosemary. QUINCE JELLY. Then it's more of the same on the palate but with an almost instantly vanishing intensity. Explodes and then it's gone. Chalky and relatively harsh bitterness from the 6months or so that it'll have sat in it's amphora with the skins (stem maceration?). Enjoyable though! Keep it chilled, definitely. — 8 years ago

If I got a bottle tasting like this in the States for $12 I would order it every night. Absolutely quaffable and great at balancing the salty creaminess of khachapuri. — 10 years ago

Light straw color. Aromas and flavors of peach, yellow apple, white flowers, apricots, white pepper and green melon. Very long and crisp mineral/saline driven finish. A bit of heft and grip. Bright, fresh and thirst quenching. — a year ago

Aragveli Mukuzani. Askaneli brothers. Kakhety Saperavi. Очень напоминает молдавский Саперави Vinuri De Comrat. Чуть позже устрою обоим очную ставку ;). В вишлист добавлю сразу.
Чуть позже показания давали уже три свидетеля: кроме упомянутых выше, участие принят Telavi Valley Saperavi ООО "Цинандальский старый винный погреб".
Выводов несколько, включая очевидные. Мне, как дилетанту, не должно быть стыдно.
Так вот, сабж действительно сильно напомнил (мне) Гагаузский Саперави, однако, дуб в букете другой, а во вкусе его, как будто, меньше. Кислотность повыше. В остальном - как братья. — 6 years ago

Telavi valley Saperavi от "Цинандальского старого винного погреба". Цвет характерный, тёмно-рубиновый, практически непрозрачный.
Дуба не слышно, видимо, не выдерживали, и, от этого, букет Мальбековый - перцовый, табачный, лавровый. Но и "Саперавовый" тоже - тёмные ягоды — 6 years ago

A quite nice wine from Georgia - relatively limited experience with these wines, but clearly a strong winemaking tradition. Nice and inky dark in the glass, with lots of dark berry fruit. Medium bodied with medium minus tannins and good acid on the finish. For the price - and with Georgian food in Brighton Beach - a nice wine for sure. — 7 years ago

On the nose, wild dark berries, cherries, grilled meats, loamy dark soils and dark dry soils. The body is leaner for a red wine. Bright, wild dark berries, black raspberries, poached strawberries, grilled meats, soy, black olive pit with flesh, dry red roses, dry, dusty, dark tannins, soft leather, dry stems, coffee grounds, brilliant acidity and a round, lush, bright, drier fruit finish. A steal for $15. Producer notes; the winery is located in the village of Kisiskhevi in Eastern Georgia's Kakheti wine district. It produces wines out of three vineyard sites: Napareuli, Tsinandali, and Kindzmarauli and mostly use native Georgian grape varieties: Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane, Kisi, and Saperavi. Farming is sustainable in order to maintain biological diversity. Rkatsiteli is ancient variety from rocky vineyards around the village of Napareuli. The grapes are hand-harvested and are pressed and then the juice, grape skins, stalks and pips are poured into a qvevri for further fermentation. It's a large clay vessel. The qvevri is then sealed. After a maceration for several months with the skins, white wines will get an amber or orange color. Photos of; Burkhard Schuchmann and Georgi Dakishvili, vineyard and qvevri clay pots.
