Region: Imereti, Georgia
Grape: 100% Krakhuna (indigenous to Imereti)
herbaceous & textured 'orange' wine made with 3 months of skin-contact & all fermenting & aging done in traditional clay qvevri - dried apricot, fuzzy peach, fresh herbs, velvet & honey
in 2018, winemaker baia abuladze’s wine was awarded a grant from the michelle obama foundation & the town built a road to her winery, in her honour (because there wasn’t actually a road to the winery already - she is literally off the beaten path!)
