Koncho and Co. LTD is the subsidiary of the JSC Corporation Kindzmarauli and is run by the Konchoshvili family. The company name implies the longstanding integration between church, family, and viticulture, as Koncho translates as "cross". In fact, during the 19th century, Bishop Petre Konchoshvili, a prominent religious and political figure, took over the winery and maintained the family business of winemaking.
Koncho & Co Kisi Qvevri is made from Kisi grapes, a native Georgian vine suitable for the production of white or amber wines, both sweet and dry. The grapes are selected and harvested by hand in the vineyards in the province of Kakheti, where they benefit from the protection of the Caucasus mountains, and a soil rich in black schist. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in the traditional terracotta pots locally called Qvevri.
The result is a powerful white wine with a fine tannic structure and a beautiful amber color. The nose reveals a bouquet of apples and pears with some ripe apricots, a hint of fresh orange zest, and then mint, aromas of hazelnuts, quince, and dried fruits. On the palate, it is dry and round with some peach aftertaste. A must-try with Indian cuisine and spicy vegetarian recipes.
They have a great selection of Georgian wines which is rare for Europe. Fast UPS shipping with delivery at your door.
