Lost Eden Red Blend introduces wine lovers to the ancient winemaking traditions of Georgia – the country, not the state – where wine has been produced for over 8,000 years. This Saperavi-based blend offers a fascinating glimpse into one of the world's oldest wine regions that's finally getting the international recognition it deserves. What makes this bottle special is its connection to Georgia's rich vinous heritage while remaining approachable to modern palates. The name 'Lost Eden' references Georgia's claim as the birthplace of wine, with archaeological evidence of winemaking dating back to 6000 BCE. While traditional Georgian wines are often made in clay vessels called qvevri, this version takes a more contemporary approach to showcase the distinctive character of Saperavi – a teinturier grape with dark flesh that produces deeply colored, structured wines. It's the perfect introduction to Georgian wine for the curious drinker looking to expand their horizons beyond the usual suspects. One sip and you'll wonder why these wines stayed hidden for so long.
