About Dato's Wine

Dato Kobidze makes fascinating and expressive natural wines from his family vineyard in Ereketi in the western region of Guria, bordering the Black Sea. His wines are precious: often made from rare grapes and produced in small quantities, celebrating indigenous Gurian varietals that nearly disappeared during the Soviet era. His wines are made traditionally in qvevri. We should all be drinking these wines. His latest addition is the Ancestors Chkhaveri which is a limited wine made from a single vine (thats right) that is at least 150 years old that used to be trellised up a tree as is traditional in this region.
