Welcome to Bruale—where wine is more than a drink, it’s a way of life.
In the heart of Kakheti, Georgia’s most renowned wine region, the Kindzmarauli microzone is celebrated for producing some of the country’s most exquisite wines. Located in the fertile Alazani River Valley, at the foothills of the majestic Caucasus Mountains, this area benefits from a unique terroir, where a perfect balance of soil composition, climate, and altitude creates ideal conditions for winemaking.
In the heart of Georgia, where the Caucasus Mountains cradle fertile valleys, lies a winemaking tradition as ancient as civilization itself. Qvevri winemaking, recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, has flourished for over 8,000 years, making Georgia the birthplace of wine.
The Art of Qvevri
A Qvevri is a large, handmade, egg-shaped clay vessel, buried underground to create the ideal conditions for natural fermentation and aging. This unique method allows the wine to develop its rich, complex character, drawing depth from the earth and the wisdom of generations past. The entire winemaking process—from fermentation to maturation—takes place in these clay vessels, giving Qvevri wine its signature earthy, full-bodied taste.
Qvevri Wine: The Soul of Georgia
Qvevri wines are distinct not only in their method of production but also in their bold structure, deep amber hues, and intense aromas. Unlike conventional winemaking, Qvevri wines undergo extended skin contact, allowing for a natural infusion of tannins, flavors, and textures, resulting in wines that are both robust and elegant.
We also use Classic winemaking techniques, including oak barrel aging. This allows us to highlight the depth and complexity of each varietial. in some cases, we also carefully combine Qvevri aging with oak barrel maturation, creating unique, well-balanced wines that embody both rich Georgian heritage and refined European influence.
The journey begins with the careful selection of the finest hand-picked grapes. Once harvested, the grapes are gently crushed, including their skins, seeds, and sometimes stems, which contribute to the wine’s deep structure and complexity.
The crushed grape mixture, known as “chacha,” is placed into a Qvevri—a large, egg-shaped clay vessel buried underground. This natural environment ensures consistent temperatures, allowing fermentation to occur naturally using only wild, indigenous yeasts. The wine ferments for several weeks, with regular stirring to extract color, tannins, and flavors.
Once fermentation is complete, the Qvevri is sealed, and the wine is left to mature underground for several months. During this time, the heavier particles naturally settle at the bottom, clarifying the wine without any artificial intervention. The result is a pure, unfiltered expression of the grape, rich in depth, aroma, and texture.
After months of patient aging, the wine is carefully extracted from the Qvevri, leaving behind the settled sediments. At Bruale, we allow our Qvevri wines to continue aging in oak barrels or stainless steel, further refining their balance and complexity. Finally, they are bottled, ready to share the legacy of Georgia’s ancient winemaking heritage with the world.
