Georgia is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Ukraine's southern shores, and this Rkatsiteli fermented and aged in amphorae is clearly influenced by their eastern neighbor. It's mildly amber in color, and on the palate, we noted flavors of peach and apricot, which are nicely balanced by a one-two punch of earthiness and minerality. The Rkatsiteli is crushed, then left on its skins and seeds for a month in clay amphorae before being pressed.
