About Wine
The 2019 Orgo Saperavi represents a true elegance of a balanced Saperavi. This wine is made from 80 year old vines. The wine is fermented and aged in Qvevri (Large clay jars). Gogi and Temuri Dakishvili source the grapes from Kurdgelauri and Tsinandali villages in the Telavi district, on the right bank of the Alazani River. 2019 is Orgo's eighth vintage and it was a good growing year. It's style is robust, yet smooth with more refined tannin structure. Approximately 12,000 bottles of the 2019 Saperavi were produce. It is a one of a kind old vine Saperavi.
