About The Winery
Country: Georgia
Region: Kakheti
Bedoba pays tribute to Georgia’s rich blend of European, Persian, Arabian, Anatolian, and Far Eastern influences, reflecting its reputation as one of the world’s most welcoming cultures. This wine is the result of a collaboration between Georgian winemaker Nugzar Ksovreli (from Kakheti) and Swiss wine entrepreneur Thierry Fontannaz, a passionate admirer of Georgia’s ancient winemaking traditions.
Named after the Georgian “Day of Luck,” BEDOBA embodies a wish for prosperity in the new year. It is made from Saperavi grapes grown in the historic micro-zones of Kindzmarauli and Kvareli in Kakheti. The 30-year-old vines, cultivated sustainably on slate soils, yield a wine of distinctive character and depth.
The 2021 harvest was handpicked from September to November, with some grapes left to naturally dry for added richness. The vinification process includes fermentation in stainless steel and qvevri amphoras, followed by maturation in oak barrels.
