Each harvest offers new opportunities and challenges, responding to the grapes rather than making them behave is the name of the game. The grapes selected and style vary from vintage to vintage. In 2021 Beka opted to use a strong Kakhetian variety to make his most delicate sparkling wine. Mtsvivani is a rare grape that hails from the eastern region of Kakheti where the strongest amber wines are made. He was very delicate with the grapes to preserve their fruit and subtle perfume. Bright and frothy with flavors and pear and lanolin.","brand":"black lamb wine","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":47294057578683,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/0227\/9867\/files\/ScreenShot2023-08-17at7.46.48PM.png?v=1692327243"},{"product_id":"gotsa-2021-chinuri-pet-nat","title":"GOTSA: 2021 CHINURI BUSHT'EBI","description":"GOTSA 2021 CHINURI BUSHT'EBI\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSPARKLING DRY WHITE - METHODE ANCESTRALE\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVINTAGE: 2021\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLOCATION: Kvemo Kartli, Asureti Valley\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVINEYARD: Located near the Algeti Nature Preserve\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSOIL COMPOSITION: Mixed volcanic basalt and volcanic clays\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePREVAILING CLIMATE \u0026amp; LOCAL CLIMACTIC: Continental climate - hot days, cold nights\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFARMING OF VINEYARD: Demeter Certified\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGRAPE COMPOSITION: Chinuri\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHARVEST: 10.12.2021; by hand\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMACERATION: 6 days on the skins, free run juice to a clean qvevri\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFERMENTATION\/AGING: fermented in qvevri\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDISGORGED: 3.4.22\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFINING \u0026amp; FILTRATION: none\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSULFUR DIOXIDE: 0\/0\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBOTTLES PRODUCED: 2000\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eChinuri is the most common sort for sparkling wines in Kartli and in Beka's production.
