DETAILS

Napareuli is a historical wine village located in the upper part of Alazani river valley in Kakheti.

The dry red wine named after this village, Napareuli is made from selected Saperavi grape variety cultivated in this micro zone, which is one of the most famous appellations of Saperavi.

WINE MAKING PROCESS

We pick the selected grapes at 20-22% of sugariness and 6-8 titratable acidity. After removing the stem and de-pressing, fermentation proceeds at a 23-28°C in stainless steel reservoirs.

We add the pure culture yeast. Following the 12-15 day maceration, we move the wine into 300 L French oak barrels, for 9-12 month ageing. The wine is further aged in stainless steel reservoirs. The subsequent ageing takes place in the bottles.

Description

Napareuli (Saperavi) AOC 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.
