2019 Vartsikhe Marani Tsolikouri Georgia

Winemaker Notes: This Tsolikouri from Georgia was medium amber in color with medium aromas of candied yellow apple, pineapple, grapefruit, quince, orange marmalade, honey, lemon, thyme, white blossom, geranium, and a slight reductive note that dissipated quickly. On the palate, this one was dry with medium acidity, body, and flavor intensity, medium vegetal tannin and alcohol, and a long finish. We got notes of orange peel, lemon, lime, nectarine, wet stone, saline, almond, white peach, and grapefruit to name a few.
