Tbilvino Napareuli

As the wine that was the inspiration for Turton Wines’ founding, Georgian wine continues to have unrivalled breadth. Widely acknowledged as the origin of wine as we know it, Georgia began production over 8,000 years ago and has sites of ancient winemaking  with protected status from UNESCO. Famed for their ancient Qvevri winemaking method and the ability to not only produce superb red, white and orange dry wines, but superb and quintessentially Georgian semi-sweet wines of all types.  

Napareuli is regarded as one of Georgia’s top appellations of origin on the left bank of the Alazani River, producing full and rustic dry wines made from the Saperavi grape – the most popular native red grape in Georgia. Tbilvino Napareuli is an excellent example, with leather, smoke and tobacco balancing ripe berry fruit on the palate. Full and velvety texture with a rich, long finish. Try with Sunday roast beef or lamb, moussaka and even with spicy curries.

Tbilvino were established in 1962 and are a leading producer of Georgian wines. Their main winery and vineyards are rest in the foothills of the Caucasus Mountains in Kakheti overlooking the fertile Alazani River Valley, with a second winery in the capital, Tbilisi (Kartli). Their team of experienced winemakers and a mix of modern and traditional fermentation methods allow them to create a wide range of wine styles.

Many Georgian wines source grapes from small family vineyards, so ingrained in culture that they are a strong part of family heritage. There are several wine regions that hold 18 Specific Viticultural Areas held in high regard, with careful monitoring and low yields. The ancient Qvevri method is still in wide use. Qvevri are large clay pots, buried underground to their necks for perfect fermentation and ageing temperature, often with skins and stems for full concentration. This method is a key part of orange wine production.
