Koncho & Co Aleksandrouli is a dry red wine of Georgia from Koncho & Co, based in Kvareli in the Kakheti region, at 13% ABV.
Aleksandrouli is one of Georgia's ancient native grapes, best known for semi-sweet wines, and Koncho crafts it as a dry red.
It is lighter in body, with ripe red berries, cherries and a touch of licorice, and mild, approachable tannins.
Estate bottled, with the winery's signature black ram label.
A rewarding pick for adventurous red wine lovers.
Good wine rewards a little care in serving. Whites and rosés show best chilled to around 45 to 50°F, while reds are at their most expressive slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65°F. Opening the bottle and letting it breathe for a few minutes, or pouring it into a decanter, helps the aromas open up.
