Chelti Saperavi 2008 スイスのワイン。 熟成感もありつつ、まだ果実味は豊か。 余韻が少し残念なのは抜栓後3日経ったからか。 黒系果実/赤系果実は半々くらい、少しのキノコ感、湿度は高く陰性で大きく自己主張せず控えめだけど刺さる味。 A wine from Switzerland. It has a sense of maturity, but still has a lot of fruit. The lingering finish is a bit disappointing, perhaps because it has been 3 days since it was uncorked. The wine has a 50/50 black/red fruit, a bit of mushroominess, high humidity, negative, not assertive and discreet but piercing.

This is my first (and generally favorable) tasting experience with the Saperavi grape variety, endemic to The Republic of Georgia. The wine offers deep, dark purple color and a nose of fresh-picked blue/blackberry notes. Quite round, lush and full yet without the sugar and high alcohol content of a heavily extracted New World wine. While I expected something akin to zinfandel, I would put this varietal more in the neighborhood of a Barbera. I understand that Saperavi wines from Georgia have 50 plus years of aging potential, that seems like a moot point with this $12 wine which can be enjoyed quite young.
