Saperavi
Saperavi is an acidic teinturier-type grape variety native to Georgia, where it is used in the production of many of the country’s most well-known wines. It is also grown in small amounts in the Niagara and Finger Lakes regions of New York State and Northeast Ohio, as well as Armenia, Moldova, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, and Australia. It has 3-lobed, wide, roundish leaves. The berries are medium to broad, elliptic or round, dark bluish, and thin-skinned, with a maturation period of about 5 months and moderate productivity depending on the form.
