🍷 Schuchmann Mukuzani 2023 is a full-bodied dry red wine made from Saperavi grapes grown in Mukuzani, Kakheti, Georgia. Produced by Schuchmann Wines Georgia in Kisiskhevi, Telavi district, it combines a defined appellation with a fruit-led, structured style. This 2023 vintage received a Silver medal at the International Wine & Spirit Competition in 2025. The 750 ml bottle contains 14% alcohol by volume.
Deep pomegranate colour introduces aromas of red fruit and a touch of oak. The palate is full-bodied, with acidity and tannins integrated into its texture. The competition’s tasting assessment also highlights dark berries and floral hints, alongside ripe fruit and velvety tannins. Together, these characteristics offer a useful guide for anyone looking for a substantial Georgian red to accompany a flavourful meal.
🍽️ We suggest grilled beef, roast lamb and mature cheese. Try the wine first on its own, then with a bite of meat to explore how the food changes your impression of its tannins and fruit. Roasted vegetables or bread make practical accompaniments, while stronger sauces can be served separately. These are pairing recommendations that you can adapt to the dishes and seasonings on your table.
For serving Schuchmann Mukuzani , aim for approximately 16–18°C and choose a generously sized red-wine glass. Give the first pour a gentle swirl and taste again as the wine opens in the glass. Store unopened wine between +5°C and +18°C, protected from direct sunlight and heat. This bottling dates from 14 January 2025 and carries lot reference L1146 M140125. Contains sulphites.
