Vartsikhe Marani Krakhuna Kvevri
Vartsikhe Marani Krakhuna Kvevri
Krakhuna is a rare variety from western Georgia, which literally translates to “Crispy” in local Imeretian dialect. It’s fermented and aged with wild yeast in kvevri, ancient clay vessels. Bottled unfiltered, it produces an exciting crisp and textured wine which is delicious now but will improve with age. Earthy with dried fruit notes, spices, apricot and peach.
Just decant it gently and serve lightly chilled. Guamarjos!

Doremi Saperavi Kvevri
Doremi Saperavi Kvevri100% Saperavi. A deep, dark almost black wine. Pomegranate, sour cherries, cocoa with good structure and tannins. Do Re Mi wines are all made in Qvevri which are handmade, large buried clay vessels used to ferment and age the wine. Qvevri range in size from 250 liters to 2500 liters. The lightly pressed juice is fermented with the skins, with wild yeast and free from any additives. After fermentation is finished, the Qvevri are sealed and covered with soil until Spring time. During the process, the solids in the wine slowly drop to the bottom of the qvevri and the clear wine rises to the top. When temperatures drop in December and January, the live yeast dies, the wine is transferred to new qvevri and left to age for more months. In the spring time the wine is drunk during big celebrations called Supras and leftover is bottled.
Do Re Mi is very proud to continue the long tradition of Georgian wine making and they’re pleased to offer you pure and authentic natural wines.

It has been fermented in old oak barrels and aged for 10 months in them before being bottled and aged on the lees for 7 years. The wine has a pale color, with a spring of tiny bubbles and a nose of sweet spice cake and fragrant white flowers. This is elegant, complex Champagne with a very long, gentle finish. It should keep for more than a decade, but will certainly make any occasion between now and then special!

Krasna Hora Pinot Noir
Krasna Hora Pinot NoirAn elegant and beautiful Pinot Noir. Ruby-colored with a bright purple hue. The lovely nose is brimming with red berries, cranberries, and subtle touches of violets and roses. The bouquet shows intense cherry and raspberry fruits along with hints of violets and thyme.
On the palate one immediately picks an intense fruitiness with balanced and silky tannins and a refreshing, mouth-watering finish. The wine has a very long lingering aftertaste.
Krasna Hora Pinot Noir has that delicate lightness, yet still a firm grip and powerful presence on the palate. This lovely natural wine is made without fining or filtration.
Pinot Noir is a very versatile food pairing wine given its higher high acidity and lower tannin. This rendition of Pinot Noir pairs exceptionally well with duck, chicken, pork, and mushrooms.
