Pheasant's Tears Kisi

Grapes: Kisi
Vintage: 2022
Making natural wine in the ancient viticultural centre of the Caucasus mountains, Pheasant's Tears work with traditional Georgian winemaking techniques and varieties. All wines are fermented and matured in qvevri, a unique Georgian ceramic vessel and one of the first containers ever used for this purpose thousands of years ago.
A single varietal Kisi from grapes grown at 550m altitude. Skin contact lasts for 3 weeks, with maceration and subsequent fermentation taking place in the traditional qvevri. Classic Georgian orange wine, with aromas of ripe peach, almonds, fresh citrus acidity and a faint tannic grip.
