Skouras 1997 Megas Oenos . I'm glad I had a chance to taste these unusual wines, both sweet and dry, made from the little-known but ancient Saperavi grape. Saperavi 1998 Dry Red . Very dark garnet, tart and pleasantly bitter. Inky black, warm and plummy.
Some oxidation confers a warm nutlike flavor.
Tamada 1998 Saperavi . Inky blackish-purple, more delicate aroma than the preceding Saperavis, red fruit and perfume. Plummy and pleasantly bitter. Kakheti Region 1998 Saperavi . Inky dark, plummy and ripe.
