- Earthy and sauvage aromas of plums and creamy ripe berries complemented by liquorice and balsamic notes, smoky and dry on the finish. Raspberry red in colour, this Otskhanuri Sapere delivers enticing aromas of plums and ripe berries complemented by herbal and floral notes. Full-bodied, with balancing freshness and a long, dry, and smoky finish.
The grapes were carefully sorted in the vineyard and again upon arrival at the winery berry by berry to ensure only the healthy, undamaged, and best-quality fruit was vinified. Skin-contact fermentation used the traditional Georgian method of clay jars known as Qvevri. UNESCO has recognised these vessels as a process of important cultural heritage. The Quevri in the Vachnadziani winery has a 950-litre capacity. The alcoholic fermentation lasted for one week, followed by a maturation period of five months without skin contact.
