White wine
Chateau Zegaani, Family Reserve Rkatsiteli 2011
Skin contact but without kvevri. Mature pear, apricot, light peach notes, fleck of jicama and earthiness, slightest tang of minerality. Completely integrated on the palate, fresh orange citric notes, and orchard fruit, apricot in the finish. Medium acidity but with good length to the finish.
