Thanks to a very rigorous selection process and controlled fermentation technique, this wine represents the best of the Albanian terroir, which ensures a unique and refined sensation.

Grape Variety and Territory

The wine is obtained from hand-picked Shesh i Zi grapes, selected only from the best vineyards located on the hills surrounding Durrës. Thanks to the excellent sun exposure and the fertile and mineral soil, this wine offers a rich and complex aromatic profile.

Production Method

The grapes are harvested by hand and fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks for about 15 days, maintaining a controlled temperature to best preserve the natural aromas of the grape variety. The result is a well-balanced, elegant and structured wine.

Organoleptic Characteristics

Shesh i Zi 2021 has an intense ruby ​​color, with intense aromas of ripe red fruits. Soft and round on the palate, with well-balanced tannins and a long, persistent aftertaste.

Pairings and serving temperature

Perfect with roast meats, game and mature cheeses. Serve at a temperature of 18-20°C for optimal flavours and structure.

About the producer
mezemer icon product
"Kantina Alimani," a family-owned winery, is located in Tirana. It was founded in 2016 by the two brothers Rezart and Erjon, with the continued support of their father Ramazan. Ramazan and Rezart Alimani are returning to Albania after their experience in Italy at one of the most prestigious wineries in Rome, Poggio Le Volpi. Ramazan arrived at this winery in 2001, taking care of various jobs in the vineyards. Five years later, Rezart joined him. The close relationship he had with his grandfather Kasem Kaleci - Agronomist, fueled in him a great love for nature. As soon as he arrived in Rome in 2006, Rezart was immediately involved in the work and processes inside the winery. His love of work and passion for wine translated into their winery, new in name but rich in experience.
