Semi–dry red crafted from Saperavi, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, grown in Kakheti, the most important Viticulture Region of Georgia.
“Besini” means “wine for a sacrifice” in old Georgian. Only the best 20% of lands (130 from 650 Ha) owned by the winery were selected with the help of French expert in famous Tsinandali and Teliani villages for the vineyards.
Pleasant, harmonious taste, fruity flavour. The wine is rich with blackberry and cherry notes.
Serve at 13°C as before or after meals treat or with sweet and sour souse dishes, cured spicy meats, dried fruits and cheese platters.
