Unit price per
This wine, or piquette, is chillable, crushable, sparkling magic wine that's made with rehydrated skins of the Saperavi grape, a black grape native to Georgia. It's hard to put into words just how delightful and equally honest this wine tastes and feels. It's just a remarkable, fun, and delicious experience.
Piquette is a wine by-product that is made by adding water to remaining grape pumace. The sugars left further ferment to create a lighter, more sessionable, fizzy delight. It's a centuries-old tradition (historically, only really enjoyed by winemakers and their helpers) that makes use of a product that would otherwise be thrown away or composted.
