Beykush Rkatsiteli Amphora 2023 is a luminous amber wine made from Georgian-origin Rkatsiteli grown on the windy Beykush peninsula. Hand-harvested grapes undergo full skin fermentation in 400L Spanish ceramic amphorae (qvevri-style) for six months with native yeasts and zero additions, resulting in a textured, unfiltered orange wine that bridges ancient tradition and Ukraine’s modern natural wine scene. From the same trailblazing winery founded on land once deemed impossible for vines, this bottling showcases Beykush’s mastery of long skin contact while preserving bright freshness. The 2023 offers aromas of apricot, orange, tea, and wild herbs, with a grippy yet juicy palate of peach, roasted almond, and a salty, persistent finish.
