Marani Satrapezo Saperavi, red, dry, 0.75l

Satrapezo Saperavi Qvevri by Marani, powerful elegance

The SATRAPEZO Saperavi is produced according to ancient winemaking techniques in amphora (Qvevri), buried in the traditional wine cellar. In selected blocks of the Kondoli Vineyard in Kakheti grapes are harvested green in early august at the bottom of the vines. This reduces the yield to less than 4-5 t/ha. It leads to the improvement of the quality and concentration of the remaining fruits. At the end of september, the ripe grapes are hand-picked in small boxes and sorted by hand at the winery. The fermentation takes place with skin and seeds in the Qvevri. After aging for 30 days, the wine is decanted and further matured for 24 months in traditional new oak barrels. The wine is bottled unfiltered.
