    About the Winery

    Winiveria was established in the famed Alazani River Valley by George Piradashvili in 2014 as part of the prestigious Château Mere destination winery and resort complex at the gateway to Georgia’s premier wine region. The winery collaborates with local growers and a nearby cooperative to produce high quality wines made in both traditional Georgian and classical European styles.
    Winemaker Notes

    Following hand harvest in late September, grapes were crushed and pressed off into steel tanks for fermentation using classic European technique. The wine was aged in tank six months then bottled for 3 months prior to release.
    Vineyard Notes

    Grapes are from two vineyards located in the Vazisubani and Kverili appellations of the Kakheti Region, nestled on the slopes of the famed Alazani river valley. Vines are dry-farmed and grown organically at 400-600m (1300-2000ft) on 1) calcareous and 2) alluvial carbonate and clay.
