Saperavi is a red wine grape that is widely grown in the regions of Georgia and Russia. This grape is known for its deep, dark color and rich, full-bodied flavors. It is one of the oldest grape varieties in the world, with a history dating back thousands of years.
In Georgia, Saperavi is the most widely planted grape variety and is considered the country's flagship red grape.
Saperavi wines are known for their intense flavors of blackberries, plums, and cherries, with hints of spice and earthiness. They have a robust tannic structure and a long, lingering finish.
Saperavi is quite a powerful wine to drink, and generally features high alcohol content when made in Georgia. We recommend aging these wines 4-5 years to soften the tannins.
