Tasting Notes

Color:	Light pink color
Aromas:	Aromas of pomegranate and barberry are combined with peach and raspberry
Palate:	A slightly sweet taste is fresh and delicate, with flavors of red fruits, watermelon and red cherry compote. Mid palate is soft and mouthwatering, well-balanced by juicy acidity and natural sweetness.

Vinification

Saperavi grapes are hand-picked at the optimum of their maturity in the middle of September. Softly de-stemmed and crushed they are cooled down to 4°C and macerated on skins for 8-10 hours. Then the juice is drained and settled. The fermentation proceeded at controlled temperature (15-18°C) in stainless steel tanks, using selected yeast strains. When the fermenting juice reaches optimum sugar/acidity balance, fermentation is stopped by cooling, in order to retain the natural sweetness and freshness of the wine.
