"Saperavi, originally from the country of Georgia, is one of the wine world's only teinturier grapes — a category of where both the skin and the inner flesh are pigmented, which leads to intense, inky red wines. The same can be said about rosés made from the variety, including this food-friendly example from the Finger Lakes. It's deep and concentrated with notes of tart plum, Swedish fish candies, and a hint of thyme, while the body is lifted by great acidity."
