Using Georgian Amphora (Qvevri) clay pot containers to store and ferment wines is a tradition in winemaking dating back to 6th century, B.C.. Today, this ancient technology is making a comeback among brewers and vintners throughout the world, mostly in Europe and the Middle East because of the incredible flavors this process can produce.
Using Georgian Amphora (Qvevri) clay pot containers to store and ferment wines is a tradition in winemaking dating back to 6th century, B.C.. Today, this ancient technology is making a comeback among brewers and vintners throughout the world, mostly in Europe and the Middle East because of the incredible flavors this process can produce.
Currently, there are only a handful of wineries (we only know of 3) in the United States utilizing this method for significant production. Purgatory Cellars is proud to be the first winery in Colorado to utilize this ancient method and introduce our Amphora-aged wines. Wines made in Amphorae show complexity and soft tannins on the palate, and long maceration period (up to 9 months) on the skin causes darker color. It is an incredible experience to try these wines. All our amphora are onsite, so you can see them for yourselves!
