Wine tasting

I brought some unique white Imeretian wines from my last trip and would love to host a tasting on April 26th at 7:00 PM (Saturday)

Line-up:

Simonica Tsitska 2024 – personally bottled by me. Aromatic, no skin contact, fresh and juicy pear in a glass

Sopromadze Tsitska / Tsolikouri / Krakhuna 2019

Sopromadze Tsolikouri Melqo Bazaleti 2019

These are older vintages from Sopromadze, with the old label – I managed to talk the winemaker into letting me take them for the tasting (not without a bit of resistance!)

Simonica Tsolikouri 2024 – also bottled by me, a great chance to try a wine with malolactic fermentation; creamy caramel aroma like “Korovka” candy

Freyas Wine Serenada (Tsitska 2023) – an Imeretian amber

What we’ll talk about:

 The classic styles of Imeretian wines

 Who, how, and why new trends are emerging in Imereti

 What malolactic fermentation is, how it happens, and how to recognize it
