Avondale Qvevri

Avondale Qvevri

Avondale Qvevri is a special wine that originates from the old Georgian tradition of winemaking in qvevri's. A qvevri is a large earthenware jar buried in the ground and used to ferment and age wine. Avondale has embraced this unique method and uses it to create their specialty Qvevri wine.

The process begins with the selection of the estate's best grapes. These are picked with care and placed in the qvevri's, where the wine starts to ferment spontaneously with the help of wild yeasts. The use of wild yeasts contributes to the wine's unique flavor profiles and complexity.

After fermentation, the wine remains in the qvevris for a certain period of time on the skins and stones to obtain extra aromas and structure. This process, known as maceration, contributes to the intense color and character of the Avondale Qvevri wine.

The end result is a remarkable wine that uniquely expresses the essence of the estate's grape variety and terroir. The Avondale Qvevri is a tribute to the age-old traditions of winemaking and an expression of the Avondale's commitment to preserving the natural balance in their viticulture.

With its complex flavors and harmonious balance, Avondale Qvevri is a wine that will surprise and enchant wine lovers. It is a real treat for the senses and a testament to Avondale's passion and dedication to making extraordinary wines.
