The vineyards of Tibaani, Sighnaghi region, Kakheti, are considered to be perfect for the traditional Kakhetian qvevri amber wines.
The black and clay soils of this area ensure the growth of a very special Rkatsiteli, from which we make the wine full of body and strength.

We pick the selected grapes at 22-24% of sugariness and 7.5-8 titratable acidity, squeeze the grapes and move them into the qvevri with stems.
We add the pure culture yeast and knead 3 times every 24 hours as it is fermented. After the fermentation is complete, wine is left on skin before February-March.

Tibaani AOC Amber / Orange Wine 2017
Georgia is rightly called “The cradle of wine”, reaffirmed by UNESCO in December 2013, when the oldest Georgian method of winemaking in Qvevri was inscribed in the representative list of the intangible cultural heritage of the humanity.
Georgia boasts more than 500 varieties of indigenous grapes, nearly one-sixth of the world’s grape varieties, including endangered varieties found nowhere else on Earth.
We are happy that we can offer fine Georgian wine in the UK from Dugladze, one of the best producers available on the market.
