Château Mukhrani Réserve Royale 2015

This classically vinified white is made from Goruli Mtsvane alone, grown in Mukhrani’s vineyards in Kartli. A scent both fresh and sweet, but which resists trivial allusions; not far from linden blossom. Those fugitive scents are apparent in the flavour, too, allied to a soft creaminess. It is pure and fresh on the finish, a wine of rare poise – and the beautiful packaging helps it look the part; a perfect fine-dining white as well as a deft rendition of the light, graceful Kartli style.
