Marabda Valley Shavkapito 2024 Dry Red Wine 750ml 13% Georgia
🍷 Marabda Valley Shavkapito 2024 is a dry red wine from Georgia, made entirely from Shavkapito grapes. The bottle brings together a Georgian grape variety, a clearly identified vintage and the Marabda Valley name. Its 750 ml format and 13% alcohol content are printed on the front label, making it easy to compare with other wines when choosing a bottle for the table.
🍇 The producer’s back label states that the grapes come from its own vineyards and that the wine is made in a modern cellar. Official competition records identify the region as Kartli. The label also places the historic Marabda Valley close to an early archaeological site of winemaking, presenting this bottle within Georgia’s long wine culture while describing a contemporary cellar approach.
🏆 This exact 2024 vintage received a Silver Medal at Concours Mondial de Bruxelles 2026 and a Bronze Medal at IWSC 2026. The competition year is separate from the harvest year shown on the bottle. CMB’s assessment describes cherry, strawberry and wild red-fruit aromas, an elegant, balanced palate and silky tannins.
👃 IWSC’s tasting assessment adds red-berry and vanilla aromas, with ripe plum and redcurrant on the palate and a refreshing, moderately dry finish. IWSC lists the wine as lightly oaked. These tasting descriptions belong to the competition assessments and provide useful reference points for exploring the bottle.
