Perfect with dessert: 2013 Kenefick Doctor's Cuvée
A significant wine, the color is a saturated ruby purple and the wine exhibits plenty of new saddle leather, crème de cassis, blackberry, truffle, charcoal and earth followed by a full-bodied, super-concentrated, layered mouthfeel that goes on for a good 45 to 50 seconds.” 95 Points, Robert Parker,The Wine Advocate

For those who love to experiment with food and wine combinations: Rkatsiteli-Mtsvane

For the person who loves to try something new: Mosmieri’s Rkatsiteli
Offering an acidic, balanced white wine with spicy and floral notes in the aroma, this Rkatsiteli is perfect for simple dishes, different kinds of cheese, dishes with potatoes, salads, and meat. This is amber wine but the fermentation is done in a steel tank, rather than in a qvevri: so, you get the grip of skins, but with some of the freshness that tank wines are known for.
