Mtsvane
Share
Mtsvane or Mtsvane Kakhuri, a distinguished white grape variety native to the picturesque landscapes of Georgia, is not just a grape but an embodiment of the country's rich viticultural heritage. Its name, meaning "green" in Georgian, aptly describes the hue of its berries, which flourish under the bright sun and in the fertile soils of this ancient winemaking region.

Origin
Originating in the Kartli and Kakheti regions of eastern Georgia, Mtsvane has been cultivated for centuries, playing a vital role in Georgian winemaking traditions. Revered for its adaptability and resilience, Mtsvane vines thrive in diverse terroirs, from the sun-kissed valleys of Kakheti to the cooler climates of Kartli, showcasing the grape's remarkable versatility.
Viticulture
Mtsvane is known for its vigorous growth and resistance to pests and diseases, making it a favorite among vineyard owners and winemakers alike. The grape's thick skins protect it from sun damage, while its natural acidity ensures vibrant flavors in the resulting wines. Although predominantly grown in Georgia, Mtsvane has also found success in neighboring countries such as Armenia and Azerbaijan, as well as in select regions of Eastern Europe.

Wine styles
The versatility of Mtsvane shines through in the wide array of wine styles it produces. From crisp, aromatic whites to complex, age-worthy blends, Mtsvane offers something for every palate.
-
Dry Mtsvane wines are celebrated for their lively acidity, bright fruit flavors, and floral aromatics. Whether unoaked or aged in oak barrels, these wines captivate with their freshness and elegance, making them a delightful accompaniment to Georgian cuisine or a refreshing sip on a warm summer day.
-
Amber Mtsvane, crafted using traditional qvevri winemaking techniques, is a testament to Georgia's winemaking heritage. Fermented with the grape skins and stems, these wines boast a striking amber hue and a complex flavor profile reminiscent of dried fruits, spices, and honey. With their rich texture and nuanced tannins, amber Mtsvane wines offer a sensory journey through Georgia's winemaking traditions.
-
In addition to still wines, Mtsvane is also used to produce sparkling wines, adding a touch of effervescence to Georgia's vinous repertoire. These sparkling expressions exhibit a fine mousse, delicate bubbles, and crisp acidity, making them a delightful choice for celebrations or casual gatherings.
