PAPARI VALLEY

2020 Rkatsiteli Qvevri #20. 


Papari Valley Winery is situated at the intersection of three grand terroirs; Akhasheni, Mukuzani and Gurjaani. We built our marani/cellar in the middle of the vineyard. This wine is a blend of Rkatsiteli from our vineyard and Chinuri we source from vines we manage in neighboring Kartli. It was naturally fermented and aged in qvevri with the skins and stems for 3 months before being pressed into a clean qvevri and aged an additional 3 months before bottling. Blending Chinuri with Rkatsiteli allows us to make a gentle, less structured expression of our cellar. Unfiltered, sediment is probable. Decant and serve at cellar temperature. (Chinuri is a thinner skinned more aromatic variety common to Kartli a cooler more western local).
