White flowers, dandelion, lemon, pepper.
Lush, creamy mouthfeel. I suspect full malolactic, no lees or oak. There's a whiff of Christmas in here...perhaps potpourri. Cinnamon. The nose is all subtlety, and the pallatte is a blanket of lemon, pear, underripe peach. If there were more acid it would be harsh. I paired with cheese pizza and was surprised that it seems disrespectful. — 6 years ago
Never heard of and can't pronounce the variety (Rkaciteli), and couldn't identify Macedonia on a map, so obviously had to try it. Really good! Distinct lemon-lime nose and flavors, almost like a bone-dry Sprite, lots of refreshing acid, very light and clean on the finish. One-dimensional in a good way, just fresh-squeezed citrus and not much else. The simple pure citrus character meant that it worked with lots of different food flavors, from salad to meat. Don't think we'll grow Rkaciteli in Napa, but it opened my eyes to the merit of a simple but very pure wine with a meal, like a cocktail ingredient rather than a complete ensemble. — 9 years ago
Great wine! Decant 2h before and drink at room temperature. Tastes of apricot and honey, mellow sweetness, very little acid. — 4 years ago

Best skin-contact Georgian orange I’ve had (available from the local wine shop). Funkier than Dilao. Excellent everyday natural wine.
