Drink it now or cellar for up to 5 years. No need to decant.

The Tiko Estate is a young family winery founded in 2017. The name of the company is a tribute to the owners' mother Levan and Georgi Chychynadez, who after years abroad, still working in the wine field, decided to open their own business. The company, considered one of the most promising up-and-coming wineries in the country, produces excellent quality Georgian wines using native vines and traditional winemaking methods.

Rkatsiteli grapes, sourced from vineyards located in the Kakheti wine region, are whole bunch pressed. Fermentation takes place in French oak barriques (one-third of which are new) and the finished wine ages on the yeasts for 10 months (partly in barriques and partly in steel), before light filtration and bottling.

The wine has a bright lemon-yellow color. Its aromatic profile is fresh and fragrant with notes of stone fruit (especially nectarine and white peach), melon, pineapple, and grapefruit, with some light hints of oak. On the palate, it is smooth and has a pleasant creaminess thanks to the aging on the lees. The acidity is pleasant and well balanced and the finish is quite long and deliciously fruity. It works wonderfully with creamy lemon pasta, shellfish, or Mediterranean recipes.
