(4/2025) Pheasant's Tears is the project of American John Wurdeman and Georgian Gela Patalishvili. Begun in 2007, this winery was one of the first Georgian wineries to see wide acclaim in the United States. The name comes from a Georgian folktale that tells that only a superlative wine could make a pheasant cry tears of joy. This Rkatsiteli is direct pressed into stainless steel and aged without skin contact. The result is a crisp, refreshing white wine that sings with notes of pear, quince, green apple, apple blossoms, and a hint of white nectarine!
