Orgo Saperavi 2023
Orgo Saperavi is an artisanal red wine from the Kakheti region, the heart of Georgian winemaking. This characterful wine is made from the ancient Saperavi grapes, the most important red grape variety in Georgia. Saperavi is known for its deep red color and intensely rich flavor. The grapes are grown in the Kakheti region, famous for its perfect climate and terroir for wine production. This ensures that the Saperavi grapes can ripen optimally, resulting in wines with a powerful taste and deep color. With an alcohol content of 13.5%, Orgo Saperavi has a robust yet surprisingly smooth taste. What makes this wine special is that it is fermented and aged in traditional Qvevri, large clay pots that are buried underground. This ancient technique gives the wine a unique depth and complexity. The long contact with the skins for 20-30 days ensures a perfect balance between the tannins and the fruity character of the grape. The result is a wine that fully reflects the rich Georgian winemaking tradition. Orgo Saperavi is an excellent choice for those seeking an authentic and characterful red wine from Georgia. With its deep color, rich flavor, and special aging in Qvevri, this wine offers an unforgettable experience.
