Our Qvevris Saperavi is described by Jury as a symphony of flavors, boasting beautiful fruit with inky notes of blackberry and a charming, juicy palate. Meanwhile, our Saperavi Single Vineyard captivates with fresh, lifted berry fruit and distinctive coffee bean and spice characteristics, embodying the essence of Saperavi.

Challenging Conditions Yield Unique Results

The spring season was characterized by unusually low temperatures followed by weeks of heavy rains. This climate led to a slight delay in flowering, fruit set, and berry development, influencing the formation of Saperavi clusters. They developed with a sparse shape but good volume. White varieties, on the other hand, maintained their normal volume. Throughout the season, a combination of rain and sunshine allowed for the growth of an excellent canopy. A notable 600 millimeters of rain were recorded from May to early September, an uncommon amount compared to previous years. However, diligent agronomic management and effective defense strategies ensured that all grapes reached the harvest in excellent health and maturity.

Innovative Techniques and Top-Notch Quality

Certain vineyards, particularly those with stony soils like in Vachnadziani, have favored important color and polyphenol maturity. Innovative agronomic strategies including green shoot selection, dedicated irrigation management, and grape thinning were employed in our top single vineyards of Vachnadziani blocks n°4, n°7, and Shashiani block n°10 leading to outstanding results.

Our harvest logistics were designed to facilitate the easy and efficient processing of handpicked and mechanically harvested grapes as well. We have used a French grape-picking machine for the first time, minimizing waste while maintaining high-quality standards.

Gentle Vinification for Exceptional Wines

The exceptional condition of Saperavi seeds and skins allowed for a gentle vinification process that respected the integrity of the fruit. This approach created wines that are just right when it comes to alcohol and structure, they have a pleasant smell, and leave a delicate and refined taste in your mouth.

Our Saperavi Rosé stands out with a strong pomegranate and pomelo nose, integrated seamlessly with its light and delicate body.

Our white wines, including Kisi, Mtsvane, and Rkatsiteli, have reached a great aromatic and phenolic maturity, contributing to round and complex flavors that linger on the palate. This excellent phenolic maturity is particularly important for our Qvevri wines, where maceration during and after fermentation plays a crucial role.

Efficiency and Precision

Our continuous efforts to improve vineyard and winery management were highly successful this year. We were able to complete the harvest of all our 400 hectares of vineyards in approximately 30 days. This punctuality plays a vital role in capturing grapes at their optimal ripeness, a fundamental aspect of our winemaking philosophy. Our achievements this year underscore our ongoing commitment to excellence, paving the way for continued advancements in the art of winemaking.

In conclusion, this harvest season is a significant milestone for TBILVINO, and we are thrilled with the outcome. The unique weather conditions and innovative practices have resulted in grapes of outstanding quality, setting the stage for exceptional wines. We look forward to sharing the fruits of our labor with you, our esteemed partners, and are confident that you will be as impressed as we are.

A new, high-tech, energy-efficient production line has been installed, allowing TBILVINO to produce 6,000 bottles per hour. From next year, TBILVINO is starting to build a special facility with the intent of using a unique method, which implies compatibility with the EBRD's environmental policy, construction with natural, ecological materials and traditional methods.

"Different Georgian varieties of Qvevri wine will be produced in the qvevri located here. In the same building, a reception space for guests will be planned, where it will be possible to taste wine, spend a pleasant time and organize various events", says the director of the company, Zurab Margvelashvili. The third project is the direction that the company started in 2013 and continues to develop in a planned and consistent way - the cultivation of vineyards with unique Georgian grape varieties using the drip irrigation system.

For the last decade, we have been paying special attention to the rarest Georgian endemic breeds. In 2022, we created Qvevris Mtsvivani, and in 2023, we are going to produce such interesting wines with grapes from our vineyards, such as Vardisperi Rkatsiteli and Budeshuri Saperavi. We are glad that with future projects we will bring even more recognition to Georgian wine and honorably continue the 8000-year-old tradition of wine," says company director Zurab Margvelashvili.

TBILVINO manages the entire production chain, which ensures the best quality of wine. We planted the first vineyard in 2013, and today our own vineyards (405 ha) are located in the best microzones of Kakheti, in Kindzmarauli, Mukuzan and Tsinandali.
