Kvevri are made of clay and have been used for wine production and storage since ancient times (8000 years ago). They are oval in shape and have a capacity of 2500 liters. According to the Caucasian tradition, they are buried in the ground, as is the case here for Alexandra KVEVRI RUBIN, where the temperature is constant. Kvevri are made by hand, requiring a lot of effort\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eand patience. The craft of making kvevri is passed down from father to son. The kvevri vinification method was declared part of UNESCO's world cultural heritage in 2013. Clay is a neutral, living, and breathable material that allows the wine to develop without burdening it with external aromas not originating from the grapes, as is the case with oak, and without \"suffocating\" it, as with steel. The maintenance and hygiene of kvevri require great care and manual labor, but unlike wood, clay does not age and does not change its characteristics. Vinification by this method yields extremely interesting results. It is made with long maceration and fermentation - the grapes, along with the solid parts, are placed in kvevri and sealed with clay immediately after manual harvesting. The fermentation is WILD, without the addition of yeasts and enzymes. The wine was removed from the kvevri in March 2021. No sulfites were added until its bottling in May 2021.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VIDA Wine and Spirits Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57462818767230,"sku":"B01023618","price":16.36,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0985\/3766\/8990\/files\/Rubin-Alexandra-Kvevri.webp?v=1782468191","url":"https:\/\/www.vida.bg\/en\/products\/alexandra-estate-%d1%80%d1%83%d0%b1%d0%b8%d0%bd-%d0%ba%d0%b2%d0%b5%d0%b2%d1%80%d0%b8-2020-%d0%b0%d0%bb%d0%b5%d0%ba%d1%81%d0%b0%d0%bd%d0%b4%d1%80%d0%b0-%d0%b5%d1%81%d1%82%d0%b5%d0%b9%d1%82-0-75","provider":"VIDA Wine and Spirits Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
