Ethno Khikhvi Mtsvane 2022 BIO Wine is a traditional Georgian amber-style white wine crafted from a blend of the indigenous Khikhvi and Mtsvane grape varieties. Produced using ancient qvevri winemaking methods, this wine expresses Georgia’s millennia-old wine culture and the natural character of Kakheti’s terroir
The grapes are harvested from the winery’s own vineyards and fermented with wild indigenous yeasts, without the use of commercial yeast. Fermentation and extended skin contact take place in underground clay qvevri vessels, where the wine matures for several months, gaining structure, depth, and aromatic complexity. After qvevri aging, the wine continues to rest in stainless steel tanks before being carefully filtered and bottled
In the glass, Ethno Khikhvi Mtsvane 2022 shows a deep golden-amber color. Aromas reveal dried apricot 🍑, quince, ripe pear 🍐, herbal notes, honey, and gentle spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and textured, with soft tannins, vibrant acidity, and layered fruit and savory flavors. The long finish highlights mineral and earthy nuances typical of traditional qvevri wines
This versatile qvevri wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry 🍗, grilled vegetables, mushroom dishes 🍄, aged cheeses 🧀, and Georgian cuisine. Best served slightly chilled to fully appreciate its complexity and balance
