Dave, thanks for highlighting this grape! We first tried it a few years ago in the Finger Lakes, where it has become more popular recently. Standing Stone Vineyards uses the grape to make a dry rose which is excellent too!

I tried Saperavi in the Finger Lakes and loved it! Such a unique wine. I love your channel, keep up the amazing work.

Hi Tom: Thank you for exploring my channel and for the kind words. Yes, the Finger Lakes grows some fine Saperavi. If you have a chance, seek out some Greorgian product. I think you will like it even more. Stay adventurous! Cheers, Dave

Excellent Saperavi story! If I may say it is "qvevri", not "qervi" Kvevri. 🙂Cheers

Hi Decantess: Thank you for correcting me awful American accent. I try really hard but some times fall short. 2 “V’s” not 1. Sorry about that, Dave
