Description
The Kankatela winery derives its name from the endearing term its ancestors gave to the “crunchy” characteristic of their local red wine grape variety (i.e. the thin, but firm skin of Aleksandrouli).
Kankatela’s quality-driven approach to winemaking begins in the vineyard and is fulfilled at the winery. Its vineyards are located a mere 10 to 15 minutes from the winery – this helps to preserve the freshness of the grapes during transportation. And, results in the quality of fruit necessary for producing distinctive wines.
Made in the winemaking region of Imereti in Western Georgia where wines tend to be fruit-forward and less tannic. Tsolikouri is the region’s leading white grape. Kankatela’s Tsolikouri is a beautiful golden colour. And, boasts wonderful stone fruit and floral aromatics. This is a classy, textured, mineral-driven dry white, with a long buttery finish.
