Ori Marani - Nita Saperavi 2023 750ml

"Semi-carbonic maceration of Saperavi from Khashmi. Khashmi is a village in the Sagarejo municipality in the Kakheti region of Georgia.

Vineyard is organically farmed and located around 700 m of altitude. Grapes were harvested the 6th of October, relatively later to allow a full maturity. Meticulous sorting at the winery, before to put whole clusters directly in Qvevris, with an addition of pressed juice. Fermentation and maceration for around 14 days with indigenous yeasts. The wine has been racked to old French oak barrel and Qvevri to achieve malolactic fermentation and aged slowly for another 6 months. The wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered with a minimal amount of So2. 

Tasting notes 
In the glass, a light red color with violet hue. On the nose, lots of fruits which includes cherries and wild strawberries, licorice, backed up by smooth tannins. Light bodied red wine, very fresh and delicate with a crisp and sapy finish. A wine with great personality and depth." - Ori Marani
