Chateau Mukhrani 2007 Vintage Chacha (Georgian Vodka)

Wine information: Mukhrani, meaning embellished with oak trees, is one of the most beautiful Georgian villages in Eastern Gerogia, located between the split of the Caucasus and Trialeti moutain ranges in the basin of the Ksani and Aragvi rivers, 35km from Tbilisi. Chateau Mukhrani has over 100 hectares of vineyards planted with a wide variety of grapes including Cabernet, Tavkveri, Petite Verdot, Shavcapito, Syrah, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Rkatsiteli. Chacha is made of grape pomace which is grape residue left after making wine. Since Georgia is widely regarded as the birthplace of the cultivated grape more than 8,000 years ago, chacha is likely one of the oldest distilled products in the world. Many Georgians claim that Chacha has medicinal properties and is suggested as a remedy for a number of ailments including ear blockages and indigestion. The Mukhrani Chacha is a very refined version of chacha and is very smooth but powerful.
