The Wine’s Story
Created by the young son of a winemaking family to suit his own taste, diverging from the traditional way of making Rkatsiteli.
Rancho is a lighter wine with low acidity and moderate tannins, enjoyable on its own or paired with lighter foods. Crisp notes of green apple and fresh herbs lead to a chalky minerality and a slight bitterness on the finish.
The winery is located near the family ranch at a high elevation in the Kakhetian mountains — hence the name Rancho.
Fermented in stainless steel tanks, with short maceration and hand-harvested grapes.
*Naturally made wine with minimal sulfites
