Old Telavi Kindzmarauli is a semi-sweet red wine that hails from the fertile valleys of the Kakheti region in Eastern Georgia. This particular libation is crafted from the Saperavi grape, an indigenous varietal revered for its deep, ink-like hue and robust tannic structure. The Saperavi grape lends Old Telavi Kindzmarauli a distinctive richness and complexity, with a flavor profile that harmoniously balances sweetness with acidity.
The winemaking process adheres to time-honored Georgian traditions, where fermentation is carefully managed to preserve the natural sweetness of the grapes without additional sugars. This results in a wine that exhibits ripe berry notes, often reminiscent of blackberries and cherries, complemented by subtle hints of spice and earthy undertones.
Aged in oak barrels, Old Telavi Kindzmarauli develops an elegant bouquet that intertwines fruit-forward aromas with gentle whispers of vanilla and toast. The palate is greeted with velvety tannins which contribute to its well-rounded mouthfeel—a characteristic feature that makes this wine both approachable for novices and appreciated by connoisseurs.

Sweet/Dessert Red Wine is a category of wine characterized by its rich sweetness, often enjoyed as an after-dinner drink or paired with desserts. This style includes varieties such as Muscat, Zinfandel, and Port, which are crafted using techniques like late harvest methods to concentrate sugars or fortification to retain sweetness. Common flavor notes include ripe berries like strawberry and raspberry, dried fruits such as figs and raisins, along with hints of chocolate and spices like cinnamon.
The texture of Sweet/Dessert Wines is typically lush and velvety, offering a full-bodied experience with a smooth finish. Aromas can range from floral notes of rose petals to jammy fruit and vanilla undertones. These wines are often produced in regions known for their sweet styles, including Italy’s Emilia-Romagna for Lambrusco and Portugal’s Douro Valley for Port. Ideal food pairings include chocolate desserts, fruit tarts, cheese plates featuring blue or creamy cheeses, and even spicy dishes that complement the wine’s sweetness.
