Chinuri, Tsitska, Goruli Mstvane, Imereti, Georgia
A bubble that feels so enveloping it’s like living in Ponyo’s pearlescent globule of entrapment, except you’re into it. Winemakers Bastien Warskotte and Nino Gvantseladze focus on regional varietals fermented in traditional clay amphora, their wines not only regally carry the 8000-year legacy of Georgian winemaking, but also belong to the new wave of winemakers reintroducing Georgia to the world. ‘Giulia' is a vintage sparkling wine, and 2017 was a relatively cool vintage in Karlti and Imereti, which allowed the grapes to mature slowly and develop intricacies. Fermented both in old oak barrels and amphora for 42 months on lees to add richness & further complexities. A blend of floral and herbaceous chinuri, critic-driven tsitska & honeyed goruli mstvane. Drinks like a plush-ous champagne with a secret, plus just LOOK at that price point for such a rare treat! Yeasty fluff, brown butter, lemon curd, saltine and graham cracker crust, a small bite of bitter kuri squash rind & cascading, misty minerality. Enjoy while watching anything on Criterion and snacking on some wasabi peas.

We don't know if you've heard this, but Canada is a truly WILD place to import wine. Each province is it's own country with super strict rules. For ages, so much of the very best natural wine never made it into the province. That is changing in such an exciting way. We started our own import company to bring you some of our very favourite wines from around the world at the sharpest prices - this allows us to travel, fall in love with a wine, and bring right to your doorstep without a middle person. Put simply, as the importer, we shave one layer off the supply chain. We offer these sweet wholesale discounts when you bundle. From 1, 3 to 6 packs you'll find serious savings. The GWI sticker - Grape Witch Imports - means not only that we strongly stand behind the producer, it also means you won't find a better deal anywhere else in town. It also allows us to source many wines just for the shop - you'll find Ontario exclusives marked GWIE - Grape Witch Import Exclusive. Are you a licensee or producer looking to join our imports roster? Send us an email at hello@grapewitchimports.com
