About this wine

Tbilvino Rkatsiteli is a classic Georgian white wine from the Kakheti region, crafted from one of the world's oldest grape varieties and a cornerstone of Georgia's extraordinary winemaking heritage. Fresh, aromatic and elegantly structured, this is a wine of real character and distinction at a very approachable price. Why You'll Love It Tbilvino is one of Georgia's leading wineries, based in Kakheti, the country's most celebrated wine region, and known for combining traditional winemaking methods with modern techniques to produce wines that express Georgia's unique terroir. Rkatsiteli is their signature white variety, one of the oldest cultivated grape varieties in the world, and this 2024 expression is a beautifully fresh and textured example of why the variety is beloved by sommeliers and wine lovers worldwide. Vineyard & Production Grapes are sourced from Kakheti vineyards planted on alluvial soils, benefiting from the region's continental climate. Fruit is hand-harvested from vines averaging 18 years of age. After pressing, the juice undergoes fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 16 to 18 degrees, with a brief maceration to enhance flavour. The wine is then left on its lees for four months with regular batonnage, adding texture and complexity. Tasting Notes Bright aromas of orchard fruit, citrus and white flowers on the nose. The palate reveals yellow plum, melon and subtle herbal notes, supported by lively acidity and a touch of minerality. The finish is crisp, fresh and long-lasting, with hints of stone fruit and floral elegance. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for grilled fish, seafood, and fresh salads. Also excellent with soft cheeses, Mediterranean cuisine, and vegetarian dishes, or simply enjoyed chilled as an aperitif. Grape Variety Rkatsiteli 100%
