Cellar for up to 15 years. Decant for up to an hour before serving.

This is a semi-sweet red from Vine Ponto, with pungent aromas of blackberry and plum jam, sour cherry and sweet baking spices. It is a beautiful ruby red in the glass, intensifying around the rim to an inky purple. Kindzmarauli is Georgia’s most famous appellation for off-dry wines, and this is a fantastic example to begin with, made from 100% Saperavi.

Vine Ponto was founded in 2014, in Georgia’s wine capital of Telavi, in the stunning region of Kakheti. The name refers to the region's ancient viticultural past, as the origin point for the tradition of winemaking. The winery also aims to preserve the traditional ways of making Georgian wine, through the use of clay amphorae known as qvevri, and avoiding technological intervention.

This Kindzmarauli is full-bodied and off-dry in the mouth, sporting a delicious palate of black cherry, blackberry and sweet, subtle spices. Its tannins are velvety and fine, and a pleasant vein of acidity pushes the wine into a long finish, with a fruity aftertaste. Kindzmarauli can be shared with friends or enjoyed alone, but it is at its best when paired with chocolate or cheese.
