Baias Wine Krakhuna Dry White Wine 750 ml 13% 2024 (Georgia)
š·Baias Wine Krakhuna 2024 is a dry white qvevri wine from Obcha, Imereti, made entirely from Krakhuna grapes. It offers a full-bodied expression of this Georgian variety, with pear, quince and citrus aromas and a long, pleasant finish. Produced by Baiaās Wine, the 2024 vintage comes in a 750 ml bottle at 13% alcohol by volume.
Pear and quince give the bouquet its orchard-fruit character, accompanied by citrus. On the palate, the wineās full body and dry style are its defining features, followed by a sustained finish. This combination makes it an appealing choice when you want a white wine with substance to accompany a meal. The fruit descriptions refer to the wineās aromas; the wine itself is made from 100% Krakhuna.
Qvevri production and unfiltered bottling are part of this wineās character. This batch was bottled on 1 June 2025. The producer recommends decanting and serving lightly chilled, at 10ā12°C. As a practical serving suggestion, pour slowly into a clean decanter and use wine glasses with enough room to appreciate the aromas. Keep the wine cool while it is on the table, especially during a long meal.
š½ļø Cheese, seafood and vegetables are the producerās suggested pairings. For a simple menu, Alcozon suggests for Baias Wine Krakhuna a cheese board, grilled fish or roasted vegetables, with sauces served separately so you can adjust the combination to your taste. For a Georgian table, try vegetable appetizers alongside the cheese. Krakhuna also makes a useful single-variety selection for a tasting that compares Imeretian grapes: serve a small pour first, then return to it with food to explore how the pairing changes your impression.
