2022 K'Avshiri Red, Vachnadziani Winery Riedel Value Packs spice and quiet authorityThis is not a red that plays by tidy, predictable rules, and that is exactly its charm. Built from a remarkable blend of 58% Saperavi, 14% Ojaleshi, 9% Aleksandrouli, 5% Aladasturi, 5% Otskhanuri Sapere, 5% Merlot, 2% Mtsvane and 2% Rkatsiteli, it brings together fruit from Kakheti, Imereti, Samegrelo and Racha regions, creating something layered, characterful and gloriously hard to pin down. In the glass, it feels dark, juicy and quietly exotic.
