Saperavi Dry Wine - A Wine for Everyone

Saperavi dry wine is an exquisite drink loved by many. There is a wide selection of Saperavi dry wine for almost every taste. You can order your desired brand and year of production at a bargain price on Vi.Wine.

Production of dry Saperavi is similar in different regions but has some differences:
  • Georgian: made by Kakhetian technology, with infusion of grape juice on the skins, without aging in oak barrels, without the use of a comb separator or crusher.
  • Crimean: made using a technique close to that of Kakheti. The oak barrel is not used either.
  • Taman: wines are aged in oak barrels.
To make a dry Saperavi wine, a complete fermentation process must be carried out, in which almost all the sugars are converted into alcohol. The allowable amount of sugar for dry wines is 4 grams per liter. The strength ranges from 11% to 14.5%.

The Saperavi wine from different regions has many flavors, but it is the same variety:
  • Georgian: light density, no tones of oak. Pronounced aroma of black berries, and the fruity notes are almost absent. The taste is pronounced, with aromas of baker's spices, cardamom, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
  • Crimean: no tones of oak either. Aromas of garden flowers and violet tone are perceptible. Spicy bakery aromas are also noticeable. The density is light, but more noticeable than in the Georgian.
  • Tamanskoe: very dense. Bright notes of dried tobacco leaves, leather, and licorice are noticeable. The main difference is the notes of oak barrel, tones of vanilla, chocolate, and coffee.
  • All Wines: very tart and slightly bitter. The older the drink, the lighter and less bitter it becomes. Aged Saperavi has a distinct ruby-garnet color.

Saperavi is an ideal wine for roast pork dishes and any meat dish. It pairs perfectly with Georgian dishes like shish kebab, khinkali, and eggplant appetizers. Full-bodied, thick, and rich Saperavi can be served with bitter chocolate desserts. Use glasses specifically designed for this variety with an oval 650-gram bowl whose extension runs down the center.

Saperavi is an autochthonous variety of Kakheti, which requires soil with certain characteristics. It grows fast and strong, and is also grown in winemaking regions of other countries like the Crimea and Taman, as well as in winegrowing areas of California, Australia, and others. The juice color is originally pink, and the fruits of Saperavi grapes grown in Georgia are always lighter than those of the same variety from any other region. The
