I believe the qvevri are coil built, here is a useful link http://blog.lescaves.co.uk/2013/06/27/of-qvevri-and-chinuri-part-2-feats-of-clay/

I too, having read this piece, would now like to try the wine.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful knowledge – I also loved seeing all the photos of other ancient wine-related vessels. Makes you think about wine in a whole different way.
