Tamada Kindzmarauli

Notes - This Semi-Sweet red wine is made from 100% Saperavi (which literally means "paint dye" in Georgian) grapes cultivated on the slopes of the Caucasian mountains in the Quareli district of Kakheti. Georgia is one of the oldest wine producing regions of Europe, sometimes known as the cradle of wine, and wine from the Kindzmarauli region was very popular and well-known in the former Soviet Union for its high quality, naturally sweet style, dark-red colour and full flavours. GWS, the leading wine producer in Georgia, has sought out high quality small vineyards in the region to produce this wine. The wine is quite purple in colour. On the nose there are aromas of ripe berry fruits and notes of blackberry and blackcurrant. The palate is rich, full and soft with good fruit flavours following on from the nose. The tannins are quite supple and are well-balanced by sweetness and good acidity on the lingering, clean finish. Try this wine as an aperitif, an alternative for people who do not like dry red wine or as a dessert wine with chocolate puddings, berries or with hard cheeses such as a mature Gouda. Serve slightly chilled.
