🍇 Bimbili Rachuli Tetra Reserve 2024 is a Georgian dry white wine from Gurgenidze Family Winery. Made from Rachuli Tetra grapes grown in old vineyards in Itsa and Sadmeli, it brings a clearly defined corner of Racha to the table. The 750 ml bottle contains wine at 12% alcohol, with a reserve style shaped by a short period in French oak.
🪵 Classical winemaking is followed by three months of ageing in French oak barrels. This is the production detail that defines this particular Reserve bottling and makes it an interesting companion to the winery’s other expressions of Rachuli Tetra. For a tasting at home, compare the wines alongside the same simple dish to explore their individual character.
🥂 The producer describes a light aroma, pleasant acidity and a long aromatic finish, together with naturally retained carbon dioxide. These characteristics give you a useful starting point for tasting: first notice the aroma, then the freshness on the palate and the persistence after each sip. This is a dry white wine, suited to drinkers who enjoy freshness with an extended finish.
🍽️ As a serving suggestion, try it with baked fish, simply prepared poultry or a mild cheese selection. Keep sauces gentle so the wine’s delicate aromatic character remains easy to appreciate. Serve chilled, then allow a little time in the glass before tasting again; this is a practical way to explore the wine through a meal.
🏅 The 2024 Reserve Rachuli Tetra received a Silver medal at the 2026 Decanter World Wine Awards. The bottle is filtered and contains sulfites; this batch was bottled on 29 September 2025. Choose it for a dinner featuring Georgian wine, a tasting of Racha varieties or a gift for someone curious about regional white wines.
