Andrias Gvino Khikhvi Dry Amber Wine 2022

Andrias Gvino’s 2022 Khikhvi is a distinctive Georgian amber wine made from a rare white grape with a history stretching back to at least the 5th century. Traditional qvevri ageing and a minimal-intervention approach give this bottling its characteristic amber hue and gently grippy structure.

Tasting Notes
A clear amber colour leads into aromas of green tea, dried fruit and a subtle waxy note. On the palate, the wine’s skin-contact tannins lend texture and structure, making it especially suited to the table. The available information does not specify its ageing potential.

Production
Khikhvi is grown in Kakheti, Georgia, and vinified by George Wolski using the traditional Kakhetian qvevri method. The must spends five days in contact with the grape skins before the wine matures for a further year in qvevri. It is made without additives or added sulphur and is bottled unfiltered and unfined; details about the vineyard’s terroir and harvest methods are not provided.

Food & Serving
Enjoy with roasted meat, cheese, grilled dishes, spicy food or fusion cuisine—the wine’s tannic structure and savoury character make it a versatile match. Serve lightly chilled, around 12–14°C, and consider giving it a short airing or a gentle decant if it seems closed.
