Teliani Valley Winery 97 Unfiltered Saperavi 2019/2020

An impressive introduction to Georgia's saperavi, without the funk and oak sometimes deployed by winemakers with this variety. The intensely satured colour, like fountain pen ink, is typical of the variety, and the flavour is all ripe blueberries, coal dust and chewy, grape-skin tannins. Great lightly chilled with some roast lamb.
