Pataridze's Rachuli, Racha, Georgia 2018

 50/50 blend of Alexandreuli and Mujuretuli.

Unlike the other parts of Georgia, vineyards in Racha are cultivated only on a small territory. Almost all types of grapes in Racha are of local origin. The most common are the white and red varieties of grapes. Alexandreuli and Mujuretuli grape varieties are especially famous. On the background of such heritage my cousin Paata Pataridze, who brought back the dwelling land of Pataridze family and I had a great desire to build a vineyard with joint financial, physical or mental abilities and cultivated Alexandreuli and Mujuretuli grape varieties. As Paata was growing up in Racha with grandfather, he carefully taught how to take care of the vineyard and winery. Hired workers were performing the works in the vineyard by hand and not by mechanisms. The vineyard is well maintained (looked after) by bio preparations.
