Mildiani Kindzmarauli „Qvevri” 2019 (0,75 L)

It is hard to come across this quality of wine even in Georgia, as the Winery owner commented. The Saperavi grape variety excels in this creation, which was born from overripe grapes, produced in a Qvevri. The relatively higher alcohol and natural residual sugar content do not detract from the harmony of the flavours, rather its pleasantly soft acidity balances via a noticeable freshness the wine's soft and sweet notes. Ageing is critical for this wine too, as the rich and mature tannins help to build up the zest and support the softer acids. This concentrated, layered and full-bodied wine is a rich plethora of flavours of overripe black-fleshed fruit, which may solely be made in exceptional vintages, even in the Kakheti region. The wine leaves a lasting memory in the mouth with its almost never-ending sweet fruity finish, and velvety tannins.

It's a pleasure to taste on its own, but it also pairs well with brown-meat poultry, or blue cheese served with dried fruit.
