Menadbe Megobari Skin Contact 2021
Ilo Menabde began his journey in wine at just five years old while helping in his grandfather’s vineyard in Racha. After dreaming of returning to their village, he bought a nearby vineyard in 2015 and soon started his own project. His wines are produced from rare grape varietals of the region, such as Tetra and Shavi Kabistoni, all of which are fermented and aged in stainless steel. If you ask him though, he identifies as more of a vinegrower than anything else.
The Menadbe "Megobari" Skin Contact 2021 is an expressive amber wine made from the Rkatsiteli grape in Georgia. It opens with vibrant aromas of ripe apricot, peach, and floral hints, layered with earthy undertones from the extended skin contact. The palate mirrors these fruity notes, enhanced by a pleasant tannic structure, citrus zest, and subtle spice, all balanced by bright acidity. With a long, textured finish, this wine offers a complex and memorable taste, beautifully showcasing traditional Georgian winemaking techniques.
