Tasting note

A captivating Georgian wine made from the rare indigenous Madlieri grape, traditionally fermented and aged in buried qvevri (large clay amphorae). It presents a deep, inviting ruby hue. The nose offers a complex bouquet of dark cherries, plums, and a hint of smoky earth, intertwined with intriguing notes of dried herbs and a touch of wild spice. On the palate, it's remarkably dry, vibrant, and textured, delivering layers of dark forest fruits, savory minerality, and a subtle tannic grip that speaks to its traditional skin contact. This unfiltered, unfined natural wine is a pure and soulful expression of Georgia's ancient winemaking heritage, perfect for pairing with hearty stews or grilled meats.

Producer

Pheasant's Tears

Founded in 2007 by American artist and winemaker John Wurdeman and Georgian farmer Gela Patalishvili, Pheasant's Tears has become a leading name in the natural wine movement, known for producing wines that are deeply rooted in the history and culture of Georgia, the birthplace of wine.
Georgia is home to an 8,000-year-old winemaking tradition, and Pheasant's Tears is committed to honoring this heritage by using traditional methods, particularly the ancient qvevri technique. Qvevri are large clay vessels buried underground, where the wine ferments and ages naturally, often on its skins, seeds, and stems. This method produces wines with remarkable depth, structure, and a unique character that reflects the Georgian terroir.

Region

Kakheti

Kakheti, located in eastern Georgia, is the country's most renowned wine region, celebrated for its ancient winemaking traditions and diverse, high-quality wines. It benefits from a continental climate with hot summers and mild winters, and its fertile soils are ideal for viticulture. Kakheti is particularly famous for its traditional Qvevri wines, produced in clay vessels buried underground, which impart unique flavors and complexity. The region's standout grape varieties include Saperavi, known for its deep, robust reds, and Rkatsiteli, which produces aromatic, crisp whites. With its combination of ancient techniques and modern innovations, Kakheti offers a captivating wine experience, showcasing the rich heritage and distinctive wines of Georgia.
