The 2024 Saperavi is made up of fruit from two vineyard sites, Standing Stone Farms and Beckhorn Vineyards, each contributing their own distinct qualities. The Standing Stone Farms portion, which makes up 64% of the finished wine, is textural and earthy. The Beckhorn Vineyard lot balances the blend with beautiful fruit components, with bright currants and flowers.

2024 Vintage Notes
The 2024 season was a strong year for us at Damiani and in the Finger Lakes, and with thoughtful viticulture and a gentle hand in the cellar, the wines produced were intentional, energetic, and concentrated.
