Vine Ponto Description
Experience the authentic taste of Georgian viticulture with our Vine Ponto Khikhvi Wine, a hidden gem known only to the most discerning of wine enthusiasts. This dry, full-bodied white wine, boasting high tannin content and a complex taste profile, is derived exclusively from the Khikhvi grape variety nurtured in the small scale vineyards of Napareuli, Tsinandali, and Magraani in Kakheti, Georgia.
Our wine-making process adheres strictly to traditional Georgian methods, aging the wine in Kvevri - underground clay jars, followed by maturation in American and French oak barrels. The result is a unique and exciting fusion of old-world techniques and modern cultivation, offering an exclusive taste experience.
Vine Ponto Khikhvi Wine captivates with its enchanting golden color and thick tears, indicative of its full-bodied, high tannin nature. The nose is greeted with an intense bouquet of ripe tropical fruit, with notable hints of mango, ripe citrus, and the floral nuances of magnolia. Upon tasting, its rich profile reveals soft and luscious notes, leading to an elegant finish of citrus custard and long, silky tannins. The complex dance of flavors in this rare Georgian wine, along with its subtly sweet aftertaste balancing the slight bitterness, makes it a truly memorable experience.
Its robust flavor and full body make Vine Ponto Khikhvi Wine an excellent partner for rich, flavorful dishes. Pair it with roasted lamb or grilled chicken to complement the meat's hearty flavors. Creamy pasta dishes also synergize beautifully with this wine's rich and complex profile. It's equally wonderful with a cheese board, pairing especially well with soft, creamy cheeses like brie, camembert, and even the robust flavor of gouda.
To fully appreciate the nuanced flavors and aromas of Vine Ponto Khikhvi Wine, serve it chilled at around 10°C. Opt for a tulip-shaped glass, letting the wine breathe and releasing its full array of captivating scents and tastes.
