TAVKVERI

A red grape from the Kartli region of eastern Georgia, Tavkveri grows well in both clay and sandy soils. This grape is high yielding and tends to ripen in mid-September. Extremely versatile, Tavkveri can be made into sparkling, rosé, red, and even sweet wines. The red wines, whether made with modern or traditional vinification methods, are medium bodied with notes of cherry, earth, and herbs.
