DETAILS:
Over the decades, Tsolikouri has become a universal west Georgian variety. Wine made from this variety has the greatest potential for ageing among Georgian white wines. The grapes for our Tsolikouri are picked in the best vineyards.
MAKING PROCESS:
We pick the selected grapes at 18-21% of sugariness and 7,5-8 titratable acidity. After removing the stem and de-pressing. the juice is moved to the cleansing reservoir and kept there for 15-18 hours. Then, the clear juice is removed from the sediment and moved into fermentation reservoirs. We add the pure culture yeast. The fermentation proceeds at a low temperature of 12-15°C degrees.

Dugladze Tsolikouri
Georgia is rightly called “The cradle of wine”, reaffirmed by UNESCO in December 2013, when the oldest Georgian method of wine making 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.
