Rosha Winery Gravitas Kisi-Khikhvi
| Vintage: | 2022 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Gravitas is a sepage of two endemic grape verietals of Kisi and Khikhvi, which grow together in a single vinyard in Kvareli, Kakheti. Both grape varietals were driven nearly to extinction in the Soviet era and were revived as by the recent generation of traditional Georgian winemakers. Kisi is one with a delicate and volatile character, wheareas Khikhvi has its feet on the ground. It can even be coarse and harsh if not handled properly. Despite their differences, the marriage is an unusually solid one. Thus the name Gravitas: the opposing characteristics are pulled together by a mysterious force of gravity. The vineyard is 20 years old. Hand harvested, Kisi and Khikvi fermented in full harmony in qvevri with skin contact and 30% stems for 4 full months. 3,000 bottles produced. |
