Importer notes from Ghvinos Wines:

"Vazisubani Estate dates back to the 19th century and traces from one of Georgia’s most storied and cherished family lines, Chavchavadze. The Estate has been meticulously restored over the last decade, emerging in to a premier wine-tourism destination built around the palace, gardens, winery, marani (wine cellar) and 35 hectares of estate vineyards."

Production notes:

"Estate-grown grapes are sourced from the Vazisubani PDO, on the right bank of the Alazani River in the Kakheti region. Vines are planted 1500-1800feet elevation. Top soil is 14-16inches, black to loamy; Sub-soil is white clay with stony structure laying on a limestone strata with carbonated enclaves.

Under management of one of Georgia’s premier wine makers, grapes are hand harvested early morning, partially-destemmed and placed in Qvevri on full skins for minimum of 6 months, aged in Qvevri for another 2-3months, followed by SS Tanks at 18 C (64F) for 7 months until bottled."
