Discover the depth and character of Georgia’s indigenous Otskhanuri Sapere grape with Gvantsa’s 2024 vintage, naturally fermented in traditional qvevri clay vessels. This artisanal red wine expresses vibrant fruit, silky tannins, and a mineral-driven structure that reflects the unique terroir of western Georgia.
A vineyard selection of Otskhanuri Sapere (oh-sah-kh-ah-noo-ree sah-pear-eh) made by the young woman winemaker Gvantsa Abuladze, sister of Baia Abuladze and brother Giorgi Abuladze.
This rare and difficult to say variety is sourced from their estate in the village of Obcha. All red varietals grown in Imereti are higher acid, lower sugar grapes due to the humidity of the region.
Otskhanuri Sapere is especially known for its ridiculously dark color. The grape is notoriously hard to work with since it is difficult to get the necessary sugar levels.
