Tchotiashvili is a family winery whose roots are in Saniore, Kakheti. Its work with Georgian grape varieties makes this blend an interesting choice for a tasting focused on the country’s wines. Try it on its own first, then revisit it alongside food so that you can compare the two experiences.

🍽️ The producer suggests aromatic vegetables, poultry, seasoned fish, mildly salted cheeses and dishes made with walnuts. Khachapuri, pizza and fresh bread also feature among its recommendations. For an uncomplicated meal, choose one savoury main dish and a small cheese plate, then adjust the combination to your taste.

Serve Tchotiashvili Muskaturi Kisi at 14–16°C; the winery recommends decanting. Start with a small pour in a roomy glass and allow time between tastes. Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and strong heat. If a little sediment is present, stand it upright before opening and pour carefully. The wine is unfiltered and contains sulphites.
