Wine-growing terroir

Bedoba Orange consists of the typical Georgian grape varieties Rkatsiteli and Kisi, known for their unique characteristics. Rkatsiteli comes from 25-year-old vines, grown on an 8-metre-deep blue slate subsoil, which produces grapes with character and great concentration. Kisi comes from younger vineyards, planted on hillsides on limestone soils and benefiting from a cooler microclimate.

Winemaking

In the cellar, the Rkatsiteli arrives directly in the Qvevri amphorae. After fermentation with natural yeasts, the punching down of the wrapper begins. Once fermentation is complete, the amphorae are closed until March. During this period malolactic fermentation takes place. Then the new wine is pressed and transferred to new Qvevri for aging. Around 10% of the wine is transferred to new 225 l barrels.
The Kisi is destemmed and fermented at 16°C in steel vats. The wine is filtered after alcoholic fermentation and does not undergo malolactic fermentation.
