Qvevri Wine
Qvevri wine is a traditional method of winemaking originating from Georgia, one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. This technique involves fermenting and aging wine in large clay vessels called qvevri, which are buried underground. The qvevri's shape and material help regulate temperature and promote unique flavors in the wine.
The process typically uses grape skins, seeds, and stems, allowing for extended maceration, which contributes to the wine's rich color and tannins. Qvevri wine is often characterized by its earthy and complex flavors, reflecting the ancient practices and local grape varieties of the region.
