Askaneli True Vine Skin Contact White | 2023

With three months on the skins, this is a full-throttle style of skin contact wine that radiates a fuzzy orange glow in the glass. 100% old vine Rkatsiteli, sourced from the Kvareli region in northeastern Kakheti, this wine ferments and ages in the traditional Georgian earthenware called, Qvevri. The fruit character is poached, like a fruit cocktail over the palate, with crushed herbs and heady smells of damp earth. If you like funk in your wines, then True Vine is truly for you. ~Allegra Angelo
