Information

Kagor is a dessert wine from Georgia. This wine has a pronounced aroma of dried fruit, such as raisins and figs, with hints of chocolate and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and luscious, with flavors of ripe fruit, caramel, and a long, velvety finish. Kagor pairs perfectly with desserts, especially chocolate-based treats, and strong cheeses. Its luxurious sweetness makes it an ideal wine for special occasions and indulgent moments.

Fun facts

Kagor, though originally inspired by French Cahors wines, has deep roots in Georgian winemaking. It’s often used in Orthodox Church ceremonies and is cherished for its spiritual connection.
