Goruli Mtsvane is an endemic variety from Kartli region of Georgia. The name means “green one from Gori”, a city located in Kartli. Not to be confused with mtsvane from Kakheti which is an entirely different variety! Goga Tevzadze, the winemaker at Tevza, is on a mission to explore, preserve and promote indigenous varieties from Kartli but with his own spin. This particular year he did a very long time with the skins and the wine came out a lovely amber, with pithy tannin almost like a wine from Kakheti.
