Khareba Saperavi red dry wine – 2022 – 0,75l

Khareba Saperavi Cslassic – red dry wine from Georgia

Khareba Saperavi Classic hails from the Kakheti region, a premier wine-growing area nestled in the foothills of the Caucasus Mountains. This region is the heartland of Georgian viticulture, benefiting from a unique combination of fertile soils and a climate that is ideal for the cultivation of high-quality grapes. The vineyards, carefully tended by local farmers, reflect a deep commitment to traditional methods that have been passed down through generations.

The winemaking process at Khareba Winery is a blend of ancient techniques and modern innovation. The Saperavi grapes are handpicked at optimal ripeness to ensure that only the finest fruit is used. Fermentation is carried out using naturally occurring yeasts, a nod to the traditional Georgian methods that emphasize the natural characteristics of the grape. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for up to one year, a process that imparts a refined smoothness and allows the complex flavors to develop fully.

Tasting Notes

Khareba Saperavi Classic is a full-bodied dry red wine with a deep ruby hue that immediately catches the eye. On the nose, it reveals an inviting bouquet of black cherry, blackberry, and subtle hints of vanilla, which are complemented by undertones of dark chocolate and spices. The palate is equally rich and complex, with layers of ripe dark fruit, cocoa, and a touch of earthiness that speaks to the wine’s terroir. The tannins are well-structured, providing a firm backbone that leads to a long, satisfying finish.

Wine Food pairing

Georgian Saperavi wine pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and roasted vegetables. For an authentic Georgian experience, enjoy it alongside traditional dishes such as Khinkali (dumplings) and Khachapuri (cheese bread). The wine’s depth and complexity also make it an excellent companion for aged cheeses and charcuterie.

We recommend serving 16-18 °C.
