LCBO Text Status
Saperavi is the most important and popular Georgian variety and is the basis for this moderately sweet wine. Expect plenty of dark cherry and blueberry fruit enlivened by floral notes, dried herbs and orange zest. The medium-sweet palate makes this a splendid after-dinner sipper, but it will also work with duck in a plum sauce, or with semi-sweet pastries. Price $ 14.95
