About this product
Krakhuna — one of Georgia's rarest indigenous grapes — from Imerethi's clay-rich Rioni valley soils. Qvevri-fermented with 20-day skin contact. Persimmon, orange zest, hazelnut, ginger, and a savory olive tapenade quality with the characteristic tannin grip of extended maceration. Extraordinary.
