*Saperavi is the most widespread red grape variety, which can be found everywhere in Georgia. Saperavi is the Georgian word for “dye.” Saperavi grape is one of the few teinturier grape varieties in the world—a grape with red flesh as well as red skin. This is surprisingly rare for a wine grape, as most have clear juice and the wine’s color is derived from the skins. In addition to providing a color boost, the pulp of these grapes contains the pigment anthocyanin, a powerful antioxidant.
