2020 Reserve Saperavi, Bedoba - Kakheti

The 2020 Reserve Saperavi from Bedoba in Kakheti, Georgia, showcases the region’s sun-drenched slopes and mineral-rich black shale soils, where Saperavi thrives. Produced by Nugzar Ksovreli and Thierry Fontannaz, this hand-harvested vintage blends traditional qvevri fermentation with oak ageing, reflecting centuries of Georgian winemaking. Deep ruby in colour, it bursts with blackberry, damson, wild herb, and a touch of cracked pepper, finishing silky yet structured. Perfectly bold, it pairs with slow-cooked lamb, grilled game, or rich beef stews. Vegan-friendly and full of character, it’s a fun, robust wine capturing the terroir, heritage, and artistry of one of the world’s oldest wine regions.
