About this wine
This amber dry wine is made from 100% Mtsvane (pronounced Mah-ts-vah-nay) grapes sourced from on average 50 year old vines located in the village Kurdgelauri in the Kakheti region of Eastern Georgia.
This full bodied wine is fermented and then aged in Qvevri, large underground clay jars, with skin contact for 6 months. The wine is aromatic and best served at 58º F.
About Orgo
Orgo is Gogi Dakishvili's own estate in Kiskhevi, outside Telavi in the heart of Kakheti, where he has spent thirty years reviving Georgia's qvevri tradition. The fruit comes entirely from vines over fifty years old — rare, since the Soviet era cleared out most of Georgia's old plantings. Amber Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane and Kisi alongside a classic Saperavi.
