Marabda Valley Saperavi Premium 2024 Dry Red Wine 750ml 13% Georgia
🍷 Marabda Valley Saperavi Premium 2024 is a Georgian dry red wine made from 100% Saperavi. This Premium bottling combines a clearly identified grape and vintage with oak-barrel ageing in the producer’s modern cellar. It comes in a 750 ml bottle with 13% alcohol, making it a practical choice for sharing over dinner or exploring alongside other Georgian red wines.
🍇 The grapes are grown in the producer’s own vineyards, and official competition records identify the region as Kartli. Historic Marabda Valley forms the setting for the wine, connecting the producer’s contemporary cellar with Georgia’s long winemaking culture. The Premium name identifies this particular bottling, so its awards and tasting assessments should be considered separately from the winery’s regular Saperavi.
🪵 Marabda Valley Saperavi Premium - Oak-barrel maturation is confirmed for this wine. IWSC describes it as lightly oaked, while the producer identifies ageing in oak barrels as part of the production approach. The resulting bottle offers a way to explore Saperavi with oak influence. For a side-by-side tasting, you could compare it with another Saperavi and notice how the fruit, texture and oak character develop in the glass.
🏆 The 2024 vintage received Silver Medals at both IWSC 2026 and Concours Mondial de Bruxelles 2026. The bottle also carries an IWSC sticker showing 93 points. These are competition results for this Premium wine; the harvest year remains 2024. CMB’s assessment highlights blackcurrant, wild dark fruit and black cherry, together with good balance and a long finish.
👃 IWSC’s assessment describes ripe dark and blue-fruit aromas with spice and tobacco. It notes a concentrated palate with juicy, lightly tart accents and a moderately lasting, fragrant finish. The two panels offer their own perspectives on the same wine, providing useful reference points for your tasting.
🍽️ Try serving Marabda Valley Saperavi Premium at 16–18°C with grilled meat, roasted dishes, stews or aged cheese. These are pairing suggestions for dinner or a shared tasting.
