Pairing Chakapuli correctly — a note on chacha grape pomace spirit
Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Chakapuli. I ordered it with chacha grape pomace spirit and the rich with walnuts and spice elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. walnut paste in particular became more prominent in a good way.
Georgia claims one of the world's oldest continuous wine-making traditions dating back 8000 years. The a family Sunday table is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Chakapuli with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
