2019 Pheasant's Tears Rkatsiteli Dry White, Georgia, Kakheti, Wine review
Fascinating and controversial wine. Tasting with a group, I liked this wine much more than most. On opening there seemed to be a significant amount of Brettanomyces on the nose. Yet, it blew off over the next few hours until it was hardly noticeable. That is not a trait of Brett so perhaps it was just bottle stink coming from the Kvevri (Amphorae). It was undrinkable to some, but again, I found it delicious with its highest mark coming at about three hours after opening. Made from the Rkatsiteli Deep amber in color, cloudy and opaque.
