Tchotiashvili Mtsvane Dry Amber Wine from the 2018 harvest, part of the Rcheuli Qvevri limited series from Georgia. ๐ Made from Mtsvane grapes using the traditional qvevri method, this 750 ml bottling contains 13% alcohol. The producer is Satsnakheli LLC, trading under the Tchotiashvili name, with its address in Telavi, Kakheti.
The wine has an amber colour, a pronounced varietal aroma and a soft, harmonious taste. These are the defining sensory characteristics of this bottling. Tchotiashvili Mtsvane is unfiltered, so a small natural deposit can occur. Handle the bottle gently before serving and pour carefully if you prefer to leave any sediment behind.
๐บ Rcheuli Qvevri is a limited selection with individually numbered bottles and the winemakerโs signature. The photographed bottle belongs to a run of 1,900 bottles; its individual number identifies that bottle rather than a separate wine. Bottling took place on 20 May 2020, distinct from the 2018 harvest year.
๐ฝ๏ธ For serving Tchotiashvili Mtsvane Dry Amber Wine, we suggest 14โ16ยฐC in a generously sized wine glass. Try grilled poultry, fish, mushrooms or semi-mature cheese. These suggestions suit a table where the wine can be explored slowly alongside food. Tchotiashvili Mtsvane is also a thoughtful gift for someone interested in traditional Georgian winemaking, numbered releases and amber wines.
