Sales Tools
About Wine
Gravitas is a sepage of two endemic grape verietals of Kisi and Khikhvi, which grow together in a single vinyard in Kvareli, Kakheti. Both grape varietals were driven nearly to extinction in the Soviet era and were revived as by the recent generation of traditional Georgian winemakers. Kisi is one with a delicate and volatile character, wheareas Khikhvi has its feet on the ground. It can even be coarse and harsh if not handled properly. Despite their differences, the marriage is an unusually solid one. Thus the name Gravitas: the opposing characteristics are pulled together by a mysterious force of gravity. The vineyard is 20 years old. Hand harvested, Kisi and Khikvi fermented in full harmony in qvevri with skin contact and 30% stems for 4 full months. 3,000 bottles produced.

About Wine
Goruli Mtsvane is an endemic variety from Kartli region of Georgia. The name means "green one from Gori", a city located in Kartli. Not to be confused with mtsvane from Kakheti which is an entirely different variety! Goga Tevzadze, the winemaker at Tevza, is on a mission to explore, preserve and promote indigenous varieties from Kartli but with his own spin. This particular year he did a very long time with the skins and the wine came out a lovely amber, with pithy tannin almost like a wine from Kakheti. This is a wine that loves food AKA our favorite kind of wine!

About Wine
Vinoterra's Mtsvane is leading the way to a new renaissance of the Mtsvane (Mah-sa-vah-nay) grape varietal. Gogi Dakishvili started the Vinoterra Brand back in 2003 to help preserve traditional Georgian Qvevri wine making techniques by crafting commercial wines that communicate the distinct kakhetian style of qvevri wines while at the same time having broad appeal to markets that are unfamiliar with amber style wines. Burkhard Schuchmmann fell in love with the wines in 2008 and brought investment to grow the brand and winery.

This extraordinary white wine goes through fermentation in large clay jar buried in the ground, called Qvevri. Maceration with skins, seeds, and stems is allowed for 6 months before racking.
