Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant, but best to open it half an hour before service. The Tiko estate is a young and small winery founded by the two Chychynadze brothers in Kakheti, one of the oldest and most prestigious wine regions in Georgia. The company, which produces traditional wines from native grape varieties, is considered one of the most promising in the country. The name Tiko is a tribute to Levan and Georgi Chychynadze's mother and in fact, refers to her nickname. Saperavi grapes are selected in the vineyards of the Kakheti region on alluvial soils rich in stone and clay. Before and after fermentation the grapes are left to macerate at low temperatures to preserve the fragrant character of the wine and guarantee a slow and complete extraction of the aromas. The finished wine then rests for 6-12 months in French oak, before bottling. The wine has a dense and deep dark red color. Its aromatic profile is fragrant and intense with aromas of small dark fruits and plum, followed by hints of toasted oak. On the palate, the wine has a full character and intense berry flavors. The tannins are firm but soft and well-integrated and the finish is long, juicy, and fruity. Have it with grilled red meat.
