Inspected 2024
Estate bottled, Skin-contact, six-month-macerated, Artisan Kvevri wine From East Georgia, Kakheti Region, Akhmeta & Alaverdi Terroir! “Akhmeta Wine House", a member of the NATURAL WINE ASSOCIATION Georgia, was established in the year 2014. We think that it's important to maximize the protection of the vineyard, grape, and wine ecosystem, biodiversity, natural biological cycles, and biological processes. Based on what’s mentioned above, we are fixed on organic farming and natural wine production. Nowadays we are beneficiaries of Caucascert, the only one Georgian company, which offers its customers certification of organic products. Their certificate is legally recognized in Georgia, European Union, and Switzerland. Since the year 2019, our vineyards are Bio certified and from the year 2020, our Wines are Bio certified too. Akhmeta is distinguished by a remarkable microclimate ensuring perfect grape ripening conditions; the micro-zone is located at the junction of 3 rivers -Ilto, Alazani, and Orvili. Our vineyards are set from 500-550 m altitude from the sea level in this micro-zone. Soil-carbonate rocks (limestones, marls) with volcanogenic rocks (tuffs, tufobreccias, etc.). Akhmeta was a part of the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) "Kakheti", but now it has been added to the newly created PDO "Akhmeta". The National Wine Agency applied to the National Intellectual Property Center of Georgia with a request to register an Akhmeta geographical indication. Akhmeta vineyards, 30-year-old Rkatsiteli located at Sabero terroir on the South-East bank of the Orvili River, along with this Kakhetian Mtsvane is located between the rivers of Alazani and Orvili.
