Bedoba Saperavi (Georgia)
Bedoba Saperavi (Georgia)
They’ve been making wine in Georgia longer than any country on the planet, so it’s fair to say that they know what they’re doing! This is one of Cork's all time favourite wines, a real staff and customer staple.
The wine is made from the indigenous grape variety Saperavi and partially vinified in traditional qvevri (clay) vessels. Bedoba means `Day of Luck'!
Bedoba Saperavi is dark purple in colour. It's a monstrously full-bodied beast of a red, with brooding black fruit flavours and a creamy, juicy texture. We also find a slight herbal note on the finish which really lifts the wine. A real winter warmer.
This wine is very versatile for food pairing, excellent with roast lamb or beef, grilled pork skewers, grilled oyster mushrooms, hard cheese such as Comté, Gruyère... the choice is endless! Served ideally at 16°c, so a wee bit below modern room temperature is perfect!
