Vineyard Notes
THE WINERY
Vazisubani Estate dates back to the 19th century and traces from one of Georgia’s most storied and cherished family lines, Chavchavadze. The Estate has been meticulously restored over the last decade, emerging as a premier wine-tourism destination built around the palace, gardens, winery, marani (wine cellar) and 35 hectares of estate vineyards.
Production Notes
THE WINEMAKING
Under watchful management of one of Georgia’s premier wine makers, mtsvane fruit is harvested in early morning by hand and brought directly to the cellar where partially-destemmed bunches are loaded directly into qvevri for fermentation and extended skin maceration.
Product Notes
