TASTING NOTE: This wine, along with the other Gold Medal winners from the International Competition of Qvevri Wine, were featured as part of the \"Georgia, Cradle of World Viticulture\" exhibit at La Cité du Vin wine museum in Bordeaux in 2017. The wine is soft, supple, approachable, spicy and dry, though the ripe red fruit suggests sweetness. A fine acidity provides balance and zest. Enjoy this with a burger with all the trimmings.
