Saperavi (‘sah-peh-RAH-vee) is interesting” – that’s the most frequently used word to describe it. We think that is because many of us Americans aren’t familiar with the grape and its intense flavors. As we pick it apart and taste frequently, we discover plum, pomegranate, cedar, dark cherry, and many more flavors. Tannins are ripe and integrate a generous dose of cedar and vanilla that fans out in the long lingering finish. Very smooth and full on the palate. We’ll keep assessing – please join us! Enjoy with pork or lamb shanks.
