Marmenio Sweet Saperavi 2022 is a medium to full-bodied sweet red from Kakheti, Georgia, made from 100% Saperavi. Lush and vibrant, it combines ripe dark berries with bright acidity, giving the wine a rich sweetness without feeling heavy.
The nose is full of blackberry, cherry, raspberry, chocolate, licorice, and fresh mint. On the palate, dark berry sweetness is balanced by lively acidity, with flavors of chocolate-covered fruit and subtle spice. The finish is smooth, refreshing, and beautifully juicy.
The wine is fermented with wild yeast on full skins in traditional clay qvevri for three weeks. Fermentation is stopped early to retain natural residual sugar, after which the wine is aged in stainless steel with minimal sulfites.
🧀 Aged Gouda with blackberry or cherry preserves
🥩 Duck pâté with sour cherry compote
🍫 Dark chocolate mousse with sea salt
🌶️ Spicy Georgian lamb with pomegranate and herbs
Vintage: 2022
Grape: 100% Saperavi
Region: Kakheti, Georgia
Style: Sweet Red | Medium to Full-Bodied
Tasting Notes: Blackberry, cherry, raspberry, chocolate, licorice, mint, spice
This was originally an attempt to make the winery’s classic dry Saperavi, but the fermentation was stopped early, creating a naturally sweet, limited one-time cuvée with no added sugar.
A wonderfully juicy sweet red where ripe dark fruit and natural sweetness meet bright acidity, making it equally fun with dessert or savory, salty foods.
