A Georgian Classic with Modern Elegance

Rubi Red 2019 Naturally Semi-Sweet Red Wine is a delightful expression of Georgia’s ancient winemaking tradition fused with modern precision. Crafted from the iconic Saperavi grape, this wine hails from the Kakheti region—the epicenter of Georgia’s 8,000-year-old viticultural heritage.

Using modern cooling and filtration techniques, the winemaker halts fermentation at the perfect moment to preserve just the right amount of natural grape sugar. The result is a balanced semi-sweet red wine that is vibrant, juicy, and incredibly refreshing—perfect for enjoying chilled.

🍇 Grape & Terroir

• Grape Variety: 100% Saperavi – Georgia’s most famous indigenous red grape
• Region: Kakheti, Eastern Georgia – known for sun-soaked vineyards and fertile alluvial soils
• Winemaking: Naturally semi-sweet; fermentation is halted by chilling the must at 45g/L of residual sugar. Stored at -3°C for 3–6 months before filtration and bottling
• Alcohol: Naturally lower in alcohol due to early arrest of fermentation

🍷 Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep ruby red with violet highlights
• Aroma: Aromatic and fruit-forward, bursting with notes of black cherry, ripe plum, blueberry compote, and subtle floral accents
• Palate: Lusciously juicy and smooth with a touch of sweetness balanced by lively acidity. Notes of dark berries, hints of fig, and a whisper of cocoa
• Finish: Clean, refreshing, and lingering with just enough sweetness to make it addictive

🍽️ Food Pairing Suggestions

This versatile, semi-sweet red wine shines when served slightly chilled and pairs beautifully with:

• Spicy Asian cuisine (Szechuan, Korean BBQ)
• Charcuterie and soft cheeses (goat cheese, brie, young manchego)
• Dark chocolate desserts or berry tarts
• Grilled sausages and roasted root vegetables

🇬🇪 About the Region & Variety

Saperavi is Georgia’s flagship red grape and one of the few teinturier varieties in the world—meaning it has both red skin and red flesh, contributing to the wine’s deep, intense color. Grown in the fertile valleys of Kakheti, Saperavi thrives under the region’s hot summers, cool nights, and ancient winemaking know-how.

Kakheti is Georgia’s premier wine region, located in the southeastern part of the country and home to the nation’s most important vineyards and producers. Wine has been produced here for millennia, often in large earthen vessels known as qvevri, a tradition now recognized by UNESCO.

💬 In Summary
