Dugladze Kisi Qvevri Amber is a traditional Georgian amber wine crafted from the rare indigenous Kisi grape and fermented in qvevri, the ancient clay vessels buried underground. Extended skin contact creates a richly textured wine with layers of dried fruit, spice, and gentle tannins. Complex yet approachable, it offers an authentic expression of Georgia's historic winemaking tradition.
