A short maceration means this inky wine offers the characteristic depth of fruit (and colour!) but without the austere tannins that can sometimes be a challenge with this variety. It’s rich and spicy, with a lightness and finesse that is hard to come by in more traditional expressions.
Plenty of dark berry fruit in the glass with herbs, umami and some earthy notes. It’s full-bodied, smooth, with velvety tannins and vibrant acidity.

The winery began in 1984, when George’s grandfather Alexander Wolski built a family wine cellar in Khashmi, crafting natural wines for personal use using organic vineyards and additive-free methods. George grew up helping his father and grandfather, and today he continues this tradition commercially, working with organic, non-irrigated vineyards, no fertilizers, no additives (including sulfites), strict grape selection, low yields, and only free-run juice to ensure the highest quality. Their unfiltered wines are made under the Andrias Gvino label, named after his son Andria, wholike Georgebegan helping at harvest at the age of three (and features on the label), carrying our familys winemaking legacy into the future.
