It is bottled at 13% ABV.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSaperavi is a teinturier grape, with red skin and red flesh, so it produces a wine so dark and opaque that it is traditionally called black rather than red. It is made in qvevri, the large clay vessels buried underground that are the hallmark of traditional Georgian winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is deeply coloured and full of character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA distinctive bottle from one of the world's oldest wine cultures, it is a great conversation piece for wine lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGood 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Koncho \u0026amp; Co\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Saperavi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMethod:\u003c\/strong\u003e Qvevri (clay vessel) winemaking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georgia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at about 60 to 64°F.
