About Rkatsiteli: Can be understood as Chardonnay of Georgia. Though it is now grown throughout Georgia as well as abroad, Rkatsiteli is believed to be emerged in eastern Georgia in the first century. Rkatsiteli makes noticeably acidic but balanced white wine with a full flavour profile and good body. Restrained and refreshing, with crisp green-apple flavours and hints of quince and white peach, Rkatsiteli are more complex when produced using the traditional Georgian qvevri method. Rkatsiteli grapes are frequently mixed with the Mtsvane Kakhuri variety.
