During the Soviet occupation, Kisi was largely forgotten as the focus shifted to higher-yielding varieties like Rkatsiteli. Over the last 30 years, Kisi has seen a strong resurgence. Kisi wines are known for being aromatic and complex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWinemaking in Stainless Steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this 2024 Kisi Orange Wine, we crushed hand-harvested, carefully sorted grapes and added the juice along with about 60% of the skins and seeds into a 500-liter stainless steel tank. As with all our wines, fermentation was triggered by naturally occurring wild yeasts (spontaneous fermentation).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter two weeks, we separated the wine from the skins and let it age for another 14 months in the stainless steel tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs is tradition with our wines, we didn’t discard the skins and seeds; instead, we distilled them to produce Chacha, a traditional grape pomace brandy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Producer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInavarde Wines is a small, owner-managed cellar in Eniseli, a village in the Kakheti region of Eastern Georgia.

Inavarde Wines produces around 4,000 to 5,000 bottles of natural wine per year. About 1,500 of these are Kisi, which we usually age in Qvevri—making this steel-tank version a special alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur Philosophy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe believe that a thriving vineyard and exceptional grapes are the most important requirements for good wine.
