Chinuri is the most common sort for sparkling wines in Kartli and in Beka's production. The variety tends to produce wines that are low in tannin and alcohol with good minerality and acidity. His is particularly expressive due to the time the wine spent with the skins prior to bottling. Hand disgorged and topped with more of the same wine. This is a perfect representation of Chinuri with Beka's touch. It is sweet on the nose, like marmalade, but not at all sweet or heavy. Drink with fresh cheeses and summer fruits.
