Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant, but best to open it half an hour before service. Badagoni is a Georgian winery located in the Kakheti region, more precisely, in the village of Zemo Khodashen. The company, which owns about 400 hectares of vineyards, produces premium wines with the utmost respect for the country's thousand-year-old winemaking traditions but using modern technologies. The team works under the supervision of the Italian winemaker Donato Lanati, a great enthusiast of the Saperavi grape variety and of the great potential of Georgia's terroirs. Kindzmarauli is a traditional Georgian semi-sweet wine. Its production involves the use of late-harvested Saperavi grapes from the company vineyards located in the Kindzmarauli microzone. The wine is characterized by a well-balanced natural sweetness that makes it approachable and easy to drink. This delightful wine shows a beautiful and captivating color with ruby ​​tones and a fragrant aromatic profile with notes of strawberry, cherry, pomegranate, and some touches of dried flowers. On the palate, it is sweet and lively, juicy, elegant and smooth. It has a medium-light body and a pleasant acidity that balances the taste. The finish reveals delicate notes of vanilla. Its gentle sweetness makes it ideal for red fruit salads, with cherry Clafoutis, or with Black Forest cake.
