Pheasant's Tears, Saperavi Kakheti 2023 Cremant giving aromas of wild strawberry

giving aromas of wild strawberry and hedgerow berries with rosehip and baked apple

After an opening reminiscent of blackberry

and of course pretty smoky

Delicious with seafood or fish dishes like a salmon quiche

the palate is bristling with energy and vibrancy

Pheasant's Tears, Saperavi Kakheti 2023 Cremant giving aromas of wild strawberryThe dark Inky, purple colour immediately draws you in. Clean, bright red & blue fruit on the nose, touch of earthy funk emerges. Seriously structured, tannins course through this and the acidity is up there, like an slightly unripe blackcurrant, despite this there is ripe blackberry, sweet damson fruit, an earthy rusticity that's charming. Would be a perfect partner to a hearty, wintery stew.
