But we are starting off very subtly. While many people immediately associate Georgia with heavy, dark wines, Giga and Nino from Winery Zodi prove that it can also be incredibly elegant. In the Imereti region, they work according to a specific local tradition. For this wine, the juice does go into an underground qvevri for two months, but they only add five to ten percent of the grape skins to it. Fun detail: in Georgia, the birthplace of this style, you will rarely hear the term 'orange wine'. They actually dislike the western term and proudly and exclusively speak of Amber wine (karvisperi ghvino). Technically, this unique Khvishkhuri is more of a white wine with a very light 'amber' structure. It is the absolute best, most accessible starting point to slowly introduce your senses to skin contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003eThe Vibe \u0026amp; Tasting Notes\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBecause so few skins were used, this wine does not pour bright orange, but rather a beautiful, clear golden yellow. On the nose, it bursts with fresh energy, featuring aromas of ripe yellow fruit, lime, and subtle white flowers. On the first sip, you immediately taste an incredibly juicy and mouthwatering acidity, but the real magic is in the finish. Right there, you can feel that tiny percentage of skin contact: a very subtle edge of texture that gives the wine just a bit more backbone than a standard white wine. It is a fantastic, thirst quenching bottle to open well chilled in the first spring sun.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Troebel Wijnen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53062946423127,"sku":null,"price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/1901\/1415\/files\/WineryZodiKhvishkhuri.jpg?v=1774015794","url":"https:\/\/troebelwijnen.nl\/products\/60-days-contact-with-5-10-of-the-skins-winery-zodi-khvishkhuri","provider":"Troebel Wijnen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
