Description
In a nutshell:
This is what happens when Georgian winemaking gets a little trendy- refreshing, dry, and textured, this skin-contact orange wine is bold, full of character, and anything but ordinary.
The lowdown:
A little bit of qvevri in my life, a little bit of skin contact by my side Teliani Valley's Mambo No.5 - sorry, Kakhuri No.8 - delivers all the texture, depth, and amber-hued intrigue you'd expect from a top-notch Georgian orange wine. It's a perfect blend of ancient tradition and modern innovation, made from indigenous Rkatsiteli, Kakhuri Mtsvane, Khikhvi, and Kisi grapes at a cutting-edge winery. Skin fermentation enhances flavour, tannin, and colour, while ageing in traditional clay qvevri brings punchy aromas of ripe stone and tropical fruits. The fresh, dry palate is medium-bodied, with layers of dried fruit, nutty notes, spice, and fine tannins leading to a clean finish. Really attractive, seriously tasty, and undeniably appealing - what's not to like?
The Producer:
Teliani Valley, established in the post-soviet 1990s by a group of passionate young winemakers, started in a converted car workshop. Despite these humble beginnings, their tremendous vineyards and winemaking skills have propelled them to become one of Georgia's largest producers, now bottling 5 million annually. While their roots are deeply entwined with traditional winemaking, they also champion modern innovation. And they attract and support some of Georgia's most exciting winemakers, providing them with the time, equipment, and top-quality fruit they need. The result? A range of really exciting, contemporary wines that showcase the best of both old and new winemaking traditions.
When to drink:
A great food wine, serve cool but not cold to let its flavours shine. Try it the likes of with spiced lamb tagine, harissa-roasted cauliflower, or Sri Lankan coconut dal - its texture and spice-friendly edge make for a perfect match.
Suitable for Vegans
