The story
Ancient origins
Green berries
Soviet survivor
Centuries before western trends caught on, Georgians were cultivating this ancient gem in the Kakheti region. Its name means green, referencing the vibrant hue of the berries even when fully ripe. While often used as a blending partner for Rkatsiteli to add aromatic lift, Mtsvane has recently stepped into the spotlight as a single-varietal star. It survived Soviet-era mass production demands to return as a premium choice for discerning palates.

Who's gonna like it
Riesling fans
Curious souls
Aromatic lovers
Drinkers who love a Riesling or Pinot Gris but want something with a bit more historical street cred will fall hard here. If you enjoy wines that lead with their nose - big bouquets of flowers and fruit - followed by a zesty, textured palate, grab a glass. It is perfect for the curious soul tired of standard Chardonnay who craves a white wine with genuine personality and vibrant energy.

REGIONS
Kakheti
Imagine a place where wine has been flowing for 8,000 years, buried underground in big clay pots. This is the heartbeat of Georgian winemaking, producing styles that range from crisp whites to grippy, tannic ambers.

Kartli
Located right in the middle of the country surrounding Tbilisi, this area acts as the beating heart of Georgian winemaking. It is less wild than other zones but brings serious structure and delightful bubbles to the table.
