Kakhuri Gvinis Marani Cabernet-Saperavi

At the intersection of history, culture, and wine grape variety lies a region referred to as the “Cradle of Wine.” Georgia, about a 5-hour flight due west of Rome, and resting at the same latitude as the Oregon/California border, boasts a climate and terrains well suited for the cultivation of wine grapes. Situated at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, Georgia is recognized as the oldest winemaking country in the world. Archaeological evidence suggests that Georgia has completed more than 8,000 vintages—an enduring history that has given rise to more than 500 indigenous grape varieties across ten distinct winegrowing regions. This is a blend of equal parts of French Cabernet Sauvignon and Georgian Saperavi. The wine has a dark-ruby color and rich aroma of red cherry, black current, plums, and a hint of vanilla. Taste with meat, fried and stewed dishes, and a variety of cheese
