Saperavi
Koncho & Co Saperavi Premium 2018
Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. It is recommended to decant it for half an hour.
Located north of the Alazani River, 405 meters above sea level, in the Kakheti region of Georgia, the Koncho & Co winery is run by the Konchoshvili family. Their vineyards wind through the green valleys between the hills on both sides of the river in a spectacular landscape. The harvest is manual and carried out at different times between July and October to optimize the ripening of the grapes. The yields are kept low to achieve very high quality.
The Saperavi Premium by Koncho & Co is produced with 100% Saperavi grapes from around 60-year-old vines, in the Khelilbardebi vineyard, in the traditional Kindzmarauli wine area. Here the forests of Kudigora and Sameba, together with a peculiar soil rich in black schist, create the ideal conditions to produce high-quality wines. The must is fermented in terracotta pots (Qvevri), left on the skins for 7 months, and then aged for 18 months in large wooden barrels.
The aromatic profile of this wine is dominated by notes of berries, especially blackberry, accompanied by tones of vanilla and cloves. On the palate, the wine is harmonious and shows great concentration. It is a round and full-bodied wine with ripe tannins that goes perfectly with lamb or goat meat and aged sheep cheeses.
