Tasting Notes
This is another rare variety. The Mtsvane is sourced from a rented vineyard near Manavi village in Kakheti, Eastern Georgia. 60-70 year old vines grown at 550-600 metres altitude in very old decomposed volcanic basalt brown clay and blue sand over limestone bedrock. It spends at least 1 month on skins and stems (20-30% added back). Mtsvane means 'green'. There are several 'Mtsvane' variants of endemic varieties in Georgia. - Importer Note
Pheasant's Tears was born out of a love of authentic tradition, and culture and endless creativity. It is more than a winery, it's about songs, cuisine, art, heritage, tangible and intangible. For wine is born out of a confluence of the spirit of a place, its geology, its history, and the emotions of the vitner himself. In the end, a dialogue between nature and man, a fine tension between respect for the past and creating a new experience for tomorrow. Traditions here are seen as the nourishing soul for improvisation and respectful evolution. - Winery Note
