About this wine
This is a 50%-50% blend of Rkatsiteli and Mtsvane grapes fermented and made in qvevri (large clay jars buried under the ground). This is an Amber or "Orange" wine style, but made in a lighter style with only 1 month of skin contact. It is a perfect introduction to the style.
Dila-o (dee-la-oh) is a new brand from the Teleda/Orgo winery with the ambition to make fantastic Georgian Qvevri wines that can promote traditional Georgian wine techniques among a broad segment of the US market by over delivering on story and quality for the price.
About Dila-o by Orgo
Dila-o is project of Gogi Dakishvili and the Orgo winery. The invention of the two wines came by accident when expermenting making lighter skin-contact wines. Lighter wines with 1 month in qvevri then stabilized in stainless steel. Arguably the best way to discover skin-contact wines.
