🍷 Baias Wine Tsitska Tsolikouri Krakhuna 2024 brings together three Georgian grape varieties in a dry white qvevri wine from Obcha, Imereti. Tsolikouri forms 60% of the blend, with Tsitska and Krakhuna contributing 20% each. The result is a full-bodied wine with aromas of ripe yellow fruit, quince and citrus, followed by a long, pleasant finish. This 750 ml bottle contains 13% alcohol by volume.
The three-grape composition offers a different perspective on Imeretian white wine from a single-variety bottling. Yellow-fruit and quince aromas sit alongside citrus, while the full body gives the wine substance on the palate. Its style is dry, and the finish extends the tasting impression. For anyone comparing regional wines, the precise blend is a useful reference when tasting it beside a Tsitska or Krakhuna from the same producer.
The Baias Wine Tsitska Tsolikouri Krakhuna is made in qvevri and bottled unfiltered. This is the 2024 harvest, bottled on 10 September 2025. The producer recommends decanting and serving lightly chilled, at approximately 12°C. Alcozon suggests pouring slowly into a clean decanter and using a wine glass with room to explore the aromas. Keep it cool between servings rather than leaving the decanter in direct sunlight or beside a warm dish.
🍽️ Poultry, seafood and cheese are the producer’s recommended pairings. Alcozon suggests simply roasted poultry, a seafood platter or a cheese selection as practical ways to build the meal. Serve stronger sauces separately so that each person can adjust the pairing. For a tasting dinner, offer a small pour before the food, then return to the wine with the main course to compare its body and finish alongside the dish.
