Tbilvino 2016 Qvevris Kisi Skin Contact Amber Wine Kakheti Georgia
“Embark on a sensory journey with our Qvevris Kisi, a wine crafted with passion from Kisi grapes.
At an elevation of 430 meters above sea level, the vineyard's soil boasts a distinctive blend of meadow brown, stony, and moderately fertile characteristics. The true essence of this wine lies in the unique marriage of the vineyard's soil structure and the surrounding natural climate, each contributing to its exceptional character.
In late July, we conducted a green harvest in the Kisi vineyard, carefully removing ripe grapes to limit the yield to 8 tons per hectare. This deliberate reduction aimed to achieve a concentrated juice in the remaining bunches, fostering intense and structured aromas pivotal in shaping the distinct taste profile of our Qvevri wine.
As September unfolded, the hand-harvested grapes, nestled in small boxes, underwent a gentle crushing. The grape juice accompanied by the skin, found its home in small-volume clay vessels called Qvevri for a fermentation journey that lasted up to 6 months.
Every step of this process, from the initial harvest to the time spent in the Qvevri, was carefully executed by hand, minimizing mechanical impact, and ensuring a delicate infusion of sharp aromas extracted from the grape seeds and skins into the wine.
The result is a wine adorned with a golden hue and exuding the captivating aromas of dried yellow fruits, reminiscent of quince, peach, and apricot. On the palate, Qvevris Kisi unveils a symphony of ripe, velvety textures accompanied by gentle tannins, inviting you to savor the unique and artisanal qualities that define this exceptional creation.”
