Red dry
Vynas pagamintas iš Saperavi vynuogių, užaugusių Kachetijos regione. Saperavi yra pagrindinė raudonoji vynuogė Kachetijoje. Tai pasaulyje reta “teinturier” tipo vynuogė, kurios sultys yra raudonos, o vynai pasižymi ypač intensyvia spalva (absoliučios daugumos raudonųjų vynuogių sultys yra šviesios, skaidrios, spalvą įgaunančios tik dėka maceracijos (mirkymo) kartu su vynuogių odelėmis).
Vynuogynas yra suskirstytas į atskirus plotelius ir iš kiekvieno plotelio yra pagaminama 1000 – 1.500 litrų vyno. Ploteliai ir kvevriai, kuriuose gaminamas vynas, yra sužymėti numeriais. Taigi, šis vynas yra pagamintas iš 11-o ploto vynuogių trijuose vienas po kito vyndarystės proceso metu naudotuose kvevriuose, irgi pažymėtuose 11-u numeriu.
Vynas praleido kvevriuose 6 mėn.
Nebrandintas ąžuolo statinėse.
Vynas intensyvios ir gilios raudonos spalvos, jame dominuoja slyvų, vyšnių, tamsių uogų aromatai.
Rekomenduojama tiekti 14-16°C temperatūroje. Puikiai derės prie mėsos patiekalų, žvėrienos troškinių.
Papari Valley – A Contemporary Expression of Georgian Winemaking
Papari Valley is a small, family-owned winery located in the Kakheti region of Georgia, founded by Nukri Kurdadze, a winemaker with a background in physics and over a decade of experience in the international wine industry. After gaining extensive experience abroad, he returned to his homeland with the aim of creating wines rooted in local terroir identity and guided by natural winemaking principles.
The first commercial Papari Valley wine was released in 2014, quickly gaining recognition within the Georgian winemaking community and establishing the estate among the most distinctive contemporary producers in the region.
Winemaking Philosophy
Papari Valley follows the principles of natural winemaking with minimal intervention. The vineyards are cultivated naturally, without synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, in order to preserve soil vitality and the natural balance of the vines. Grapes are harvested by hand, and fermentation takes place using indigenous yeasts, without technological manipulation.
A central role is given to the qvevri method – traditional clay vessels buried underground. Papari Valley distinguishes itself by using a terraced qvevri system, allowing the wine to move by gravity alone, without mechanical pumping. This approach helps preserve purity of structure and natural balance in the wines.
Terroir and Wine Style
The vineyards are located in the Kakheti region, regarded as the cradle of Georgian winemaking. The area is characterized by a favorable continental climate, significant diurnal temperature variation, and mineral-rich soils, all of which contribute to the structure and longevity of the wines.
The primary grape variety is ‘Saperavi’, from which deep, characterful wines are produced, marked by natural concentration and firm structure. The winery also produces qvevri-style white wines, most commonly from ‘Rkatsiteli’ and other indigenous varieties, noted for their texture, tannic grip, and long, layered finish.
