Tasting Georgian wines for the first time will most likely turn all your pre-existing knowledge and experience about wines upside down. \u00a0The products of this country with an 8000 year – old viticulture will resemble nothing you ever tasted before. \u00a0The deep amber and purple coloured, seemingly endless variety of mind-boggigly complex and flavour-rich wines, that ferment spontaneously in the ground in amfora-shaped clay vessels ( qvevri-s) will, if you let them, \u00a0lead you to a mistical-mythical realm, where being shaken to your core by ancient, inexplicably familiar flavours is a high probability.<\/p>\n
Rkatsiteli is currently the most popular and widely grown grape variety in Georgia. Ruispiri’s \u00a02019 vintage shows the well recognisable style of the winery. It is a medium body, outstandingly stabile and neat, slightly lighter amber coloured natural wine. Nice and fruity-smooth, \u00a0lot less \u00a0tannin than Khikvi and Kisi.<\/p>\n
