Shimon & Company Saperavi Khashmi Premium Dry Red (750ml)
- In stock
- Not Mevushal
- Kosher for Passover
Georgia's flagship red grape is Saperavi, and its fruit gains its deepest concentration in Khashmi, a sub-region of Kakheti. Shimon & Company is the only kosher winery in Georgia. Its bottling is dry and unadorned, an ink-dark, structured, food-hungry wine.
Mood: ink, iron, ancient.
The bottle that changes the conversation. Saperavi drinks like Malbec's older, wiser cousin, and Khashmi is the Kakheti address to know.
Tasting Notes
The nose shows blueberry, black plum, and dark cherry, along with hints of iron, cured meat, and dried herbs. Dense and structured on the palate, it brings cassis, mulberry, and warm forest floor inside a frame of savory umami. A long, mineral finish follows, and the ripe tannins linger.
Food Pairing
It is a perfect pour for a Shabbos steak. Grilled ribeye, slow-braised short ribs, cholent, roast lamb, or hard aged cheeses all suit it very well. Give it thirty minutes in a decanter, because the wine opens up considerably.
