Ultimate Guide to Georgian Wine Country: Discover the Best of Kakheti and Tbilisi

Travel to the Cradle of Wine – The Republic of Georgia

While wine has carved its niche in the annals of global history and is an integral component of numerous cultures worldwide, its roots are deeply embedded in one specific locale: the Republic of Georgia. This nation doesn’t just share a bond with wine; it is revered as its birthplace. Archaeological discoveries have consistently identified the South Caucasus region of Georgia as the site of the earliest known wine production, a practice dating back to 6,000 BC.

This means Georgia’s winemaking heritage spans over 8,000 years, distinguished by its traditional Qvevri winemaking method, a technique so unique that it has earned the accolade of a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage . Yet, beyond the accolades and history, it’s the tangible elements—the hospitable people, the rich culinary landscape, and the distinctively Georgian wines—that truly make a journey to the Republic of Georgia an enriching and memorable experience.

Georgian Wine Production

Georgia’s winemaking heritage is deeply rooted in its four primary wine-producing regions: Kakheti, Imereti, Kartli, and Racha. The country includes 29 Protected Designations of Origin (PDOs) and a rich diversity of indigenous grape varieties, numbering over 525, with 45 of these varieties actively cultivated in commercial viticulture. Among these, approximately 75% are white grape varieties, and 25% are black (red) grape varieties.

While modern methods like stainless steel and oak aging are employed, Georgia is renowned for its traditional use of Qvevri, large clay vessels, for wine fermentation and aging. A unique aspect of Georgian wine production involves the method of fermenting white grapes in Qvevri along with their seeds, skins, and occasionally stems. This process imparts an amber hue to the wine, often referred to as ‘amber wine’ or ‘orange wine’ due to its distinct color and rich, tannic profile. These amber wines, celebrated for their depth of flavor and historical significance, are a source of immense pride in Georgian viticulture.

Amber or orange wines are essentially white wines made using a method more akin to red wine production, where the grape skins are left in contact with the juice for an extended period, resulting in a wine with a deep amber or orange hue, a fuller body, and a unique flavor profile that distinguishes it from traditional white wines. You can learn more about orange wine production here .

The #WinesofGeorgia

Here are some of the main Georgian wines and the grape varieties involved in their production:

Saperavi: This is arguably the most famous red wine from Georgia. Made from the Saperavi grape, which is a teinturier variety (both skin and flesh are red), it produces deeply colored, full-bodied wines with bold flavors and high tannin content.

Rkatsiteli: One of the oldest grape varieties, Rkatsiteli produces a highly acidic and versatile white wine. This wine can range from crisp and light to rich and full-bodied, depending on the production method, including the traditional Qvevri method.

Mtsvane Kakhuri: Often simply known as Mtsvane, this grape produces elegant and aromatic white wines. These wines typically have floral and fruity notes, with a balanced acidity that makes them quite refreshing.

Tsinandali: This is a dry white wine blend, primarily made from Rkatsiteli and Mtsvane grapes. Tsinandali is known for its straw color, fruity aroma, and a well-balanced, sophisticated flavor profile.

Kindzmarauli: A semi-sweet red wine primarily made from the Saperavi grape. Kindzmarauli stands out for its natural sweetness balanced with acidity, deep purple color, and fruity notes.

Khvanchkara: Another popular semi-sweet red wine, Khvanchkara is a blend of the Alexandrouli and Mujuretuli grape varieties. It is known for its ruby color, floral aroma, and raspberry notes.

Georgian Food

Georgian cuisine, a vibrant blend of flavors and techniques, has evolved over the centuries under the influence of various cultures, including Mediterranean, Greek, Persian, and Turkish culinary traditions. Each region within Georgia has its own unique culinary style and preparation methods, reflecting the diverse landscape and cultural influences of the country.

Agriculturally rich, Georgia has traditionally placed a strong emphasis on vegetarian dishes, with meat historically being a luxury reserved for special occasions. In contemporary Georgian cuisine, however, there is a more balanced incorporation of meats alongside staple ingredients like breads, cheeses, walnuts, and fresh tomatoes. Notably, walnuts, a key ingredient found in many Georgian recipes, highlight the country’s status as a significant walnut producer. The cuisine’s diversity and the use of fresh, locally sourced ingredients like walnuts, are central to its appeal and uniqueness.

Some popular Georgian dishes include:

Khachapuri – This beloved Georgian staple is essentially a cheese-filled bread, but it’s much more than that. Each region has its own variation, ranging from a simple cheese-topped bread to elaborate versions with added ingredients like egg and butter.

Puri – This is a type of Georgian bread, traditionally baked in a toné, a deep, circular clay oven. The bread has a unique texture and flavor, partly due to the distinctive baking method, which imparts a smoky, earthy aroma.

Pkhali – Often served as an appetizer, Pkhali is a kind of vegetable pâté, combining finely chopped and cooked vegetables (like spinach or beets) with a rich walnut paste, seasoned with garlic, herbs, and spices. It’s a colorful and flavorful showcase of Georgia’s love for walnuts.

Badrijani Nigvzit – This dish features tender strips of roasted eggplant (badrijan) wrapped around a savory, spiced walnut paste. It’s a delightful combination of textures and flavors, balancing the softness of the eggplant with the richness of the nuts.

Ajapsandali – A hearty and spicy Georgian eggplant stew, Ajapsandali is a medley of vegetables including eggplants, tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions, often seasoned with fragrant herbs. It’s a vibrant and nourishing dish, perfect for those who love robust flavors.

Khinkali – These are Georgian dumplings, notable for their twisted, knob-like shape. Typically filled with meat, cheese, or mushrooms, and a hot broth, Khinkali are a culinary delight, served boiled or steamed. They are a true test of one’s eating skills; the trick is to consume them without spilling the savory broth inside.

Churchkhela – Often referred to as Georgian candy, Churchkhela is a traditional sweet made by stringing walnuts together and dipping them in thickened grape must mixed with flour. This results in a candle-shaped treat that’s chewy, nutty, and satisfyingly sweet, often found hanging in markets and roadside stalls.

How To Get To Georgia

The Republic of Georgia is located at the juncture of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. Part of the Caucasus region, it is bordered by the Black Sea to the west, Russia to the north and northeast, Turkey to the southwest, Armenia to the south, and Azerbaijan to the southeast. A stop on the Silk Road, Georgia has been a convergence of civilizations over the centuries until becoming part of the Soviet Union. It gained its independence in 1991 but spent the next decade dealing with political and social unrest. Fortunately, since 2008, Georgia has rapidly expanded for tourism and today is one of the safest countries in Europe.

To get to Georgia, the best airport to fly into is in Tbilisi, the capital city of Georgia. If you want to travel around Georgia into the wine regions, it is very safe to travel on your own by renting a car (you can browse current flight and rental car rates here on Kayak ). However, for travelers in Georgia, private transportation often proves to be the most convenient option. This is partly because the Georgian language, which has its own unique alphabet, is predominantly spoken throughout the country. While many locals are fluent in Russian, a legacy of Georgia’s historical ties with Russia, English is less commonly spoken, especially outside of Tbilisi and key tourist areas. However, visitors will find that the warmth and hospitality of the Georgian people often bridge the language barrier effectively. Assistance from a guide can further enhance the travel experience, ensuring smooth communication and a deeper understanding of the local culture and places.

Tbilisi, as Georgia’s capital and its largest city, holds significant historical and cultural importance. The city is divided by the Kura River, known in Georgia as the Mtkvari River, which originates in Turkey and flows to the Caspian Sea. Central to Tbilisi’s charm is the historic Old Tbilisi area, dating back to the Middle Ages, which forms the core of the city. Additionally, parts of the city reflect 18th-century Georgian architecture.

Since gaining independence, Tbilisi has seen the development of modern architectural structures. This includes key government buildings like the President’s House and the Public House, as well as cultural venues like the Concert Hall, all located along the river’s edge. The Bridge of Peace, a contemporary pedestrian bridge made of steel and glass, spans the Mtkvari River and links the historic Old Town with newer parts of the city.

What to Do in Tbilisi

Exploring tbilisi.

Most of Tbilisi’s notable attractions are concentrated in Old Tbilisi, making it an ideal area for a walking tour, whether self-guided or with a guide . The tour can start at Freedom Square, a central and historically significant location in the city. This square, once known as Lenin Square during the Soviet era, now features a striking golden statue of St. George slaying a dragon, symbolizing the nation’s transformation.

As you stroll through the cobblestone streets of Old Tbilisi, you’ll notice a diverse mixture of architectural styles, with many houses charmingly covered in vines. The neighborhood highlights Tbilisi’s historical role as a significant hub on the Silk Road, evident in the close proximity of religious and cultural sites representing various faiths and communities. These include Armenian, Georgian Orthodox, Jewish, and Catholic places of worship, reflecting the city’s rich multicultural heritage influenced by the myriad of traders and travelers who passed through over centuries.

Two exceptional ways to see the city are from the water and from up high. By boat, sail down the Kura River and under the Bridge of Peace for a unique perspective of Tbilisi. Pass by cliffs, the 13th-century Metekhi church, the Royal Baths, and Rike Park. There are many boat companies by the river offering 30-minute boat tours day and night.  

For an aerial view, take the Aerial Tramway located beside Rike Park. The tram can be taken during day or night. It travels from one side of the river to the other, with the Bridge of Peace always in view. From the top, in addition to breathtaking views, you can visit the Narikala Fortress as well as the Botanical Garden. Locally guided tours including the cable car can be arranged ahead of time.

Starting from the summit reached by the tram, descend the hill to reach the Leghvtakhevi Gorge, home to a notable waterfall. This natural feature is integral to Tbilisi’s history, being the source of the city’s famed sulfur waters. Tbilisi’s very name originates from the local word for “warm place,” a nod to these therapeutic waters. In the Abanotubani neighborhood of Old Tbilisi, you’ll find a concentration of sulfur bathhouses. Drawing inspiration from Persian and Turkish bath traditions, these bathhouses offer a serene escape, inviting #Winetravelers to unwind in the warm, healing embrace of the sulfuric waters.

To learn about the 8000-year history of Georgian winemaking, visit the Tbilisi Wine Museum (8 Sioni St, Tbilisi, Georgia) housed in a 17 th -century building that sits over a preserved underground city. The museum is below the MtKvari River and includes artifacts that have been discovered during archaeological excavations.  

When ready to enjoy Georgian wine, head to Vino Underground near Freedom Square (15 Galaktion Tabidze St, Tbilisi, Georgia). Opened in 2011, it was the first wine bar and retail store for natural wine in Georgia. Owned by six of Georgia’s most well-known natural wine producers, including American-born John Wurdeman, Vino Underground is in a small, brick-lined cellar. Featuring small-production, family-owned wines, there are more than 200 options to try. Enjoy a glass at the bar or take a few bottles home.

Next door to Vino Underground is the Bitadze Tea Shop & Museum , a tiny museum founded by father and son Shota and George Bitadze.

Tea was introduced to Georgia in the early 19th century. The first instance of tea cultivation in Georgia dates back to 1809 when Prince Mamia V Gurieli began growing Camellia Sinensis, the tea plant, in his botanical garden. However, it was in 1847 that Prince Miha Eristavi established the first tea plantation in Georgia after smuggling tea seeds from China. This event is often marked as the birth year of Georgian tea and the beginning of tea culture in the region​​​​​​.

The first tea bushes in Georgia were planted in 1845 in western Georgia, but significant development in the tea industry began towards the end of the 19th century under the Russian Empire, which showed interest in cultivating the tea industry in Georgia. This period saw the engagement of experts to develop tea plantations in the country​. The first tea factory in Georgia was open from 1893 to 1925 and was run by a Chinese tea master. During Soviet rule, tea was manufactured but production was abandoned after the Soviet collapse.

In 2006, the Georgian Organic Tea Producers Association was created. It began with educating producers about new technology and now they send farmers to study in tea-producing countries such as China. Stop by the Bitadze Tea Museum before or after a stop at Underground Vino to purchase some Georgian black, green, and herbal teas. In addition to selling Georgian tea, they offer a tea-tasting experience and can also arrange visits to tea plantations in Georgia.

One hour away from Tbilisi is the Kakheti wine region, the most famous wine region in Georgia. It consists of eight districts: Gurjaani, Qvarelli, Sagarejo, Dedoplistsqaro, Signangi, Lagodekhi, Akhmeta, and Telavi, its capital. Wine is likewise very important in Kakheti and symbols of the beverage can be found everywhere. Grapes are carved into old stone structures and Qvevri are found in the fountains throughout the squares and villages of the region.

Of the 48,000 hectares of vineyards in Georgia, 33,000 hectares are located in Kakheti. 80% of the vineyards in Georgia are in Kakheti and 20 of the 29 PDOs are also found in this region. The principal white grapes in Kakheti are Rkatsiteli , Mtsvana Kakhuri, Kisi, and Khikhvi. The primary red grape is Saperavi. Kakheti has a continental climate with rich diverse soils called “cinnamomic” as they consist of sandy, reddish, calcareous clays. The grapes are all hand-picked and there is no irrigation.

Sighnaghi, perched atop a hill, offers an eye-opening panoramic view of the Alazani Valley with the majestic Caucasus mountains in the backdrop. The town’s name, derived from the Turkish “signak” meaning shelter, reflects its historical role as a bastion against invasions, established in the 18th century. Encircling the town is an impressive four-kilometer fortress wall, complete with towers and gates, cascading down the hills, reminiscent of a miniature Great Wall of China. This wall is not just a historical relic; visitors can actually walk along it.

Often celebrated as Georgia’s city of love, Sighnaghi charms with its well-preserved cobblestone streets and architecture dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. Dotting these streets are notable establishments like Pheasant’s Tears and Orko’s Wines.

Pheasant’s Tears , set in a building that’s over 300 years old, enjoys a reputation as one of Georgia’s finest dining establishments. It was opened by John Wurdeman, an American artist who discovered Georgia during his art studies in Moscow. Wurdeman has played a pivotal role in both preserving and revitalizing Georgia’s ancient winemaking traditions. His organic, unfiltered wines, fermented and aged in Qvevri, have garnered international attention. The restaurant, helmed by chef Gia Rokashvili, offers a unique dining experience with no fixed menu; instead, Rokashvili crafts daily culinary creations using fresh, local market produce.

Adjacent to this culinary gem is Okro’s Wine Restaurant & Cellar, established by native Sighnaghi resident John Okruashvili. Naming his venture after the Georgian word for gold, “Orko,” Okruashvili released his first wine in 2009. Specializing in traditional, organic Qvevri wines, he utilizes grapes from his own vineyard. The winery’s restaurant features a terrace that provides splendid views of the Alazani Valley, making it a perfect spot to savor these unique wines.

Where to Stay in Sighnaghi

Lost Ridge Inn is a boutique inn, a restaurant, a craft brewery, and a horse ranch all in one. It is located on a crest overlooking the Alazani Valley and the Caucasus Mountains. This rural getaway is the first of its kind in Georgia and is also owned by John Wurdeman. The boutique hotel has six rooms, each with a modern rustic vibe. The Lost Ridge Café serves a seasonal menu with ingredients from their permaculture garden. The craft brewery produces beer onsite and ages it in the onsite beer cave. And they offer horseback riding in the mountains.

The Gurjaani Municipality, less than an hour north of Sighnaghi, is in the heart of the Kakheti region and is home to more than 80 wineries. Nine of the PDOS in Georgia come from the Gurjaani region. This is where the annual Gurjaani Wine Festival, a celebration of the heritage and diversity of Georgian wine, takes place each October.

More than 30,000 people attend this event which takes place in the forested Akhtala Park and features hundreds of wineries of all sizes, handicraft vendors, live music, cultural exhibitions, and local Georgian foods, including Kakheti barbecue. This festival is a great reason to travel to Georgia in October.

Where to Stay in Gurjaani

Located in the Gurjaani region’s village of Vazisubani, the Vazisubani Estate is a blend of historical elegance and contemporary luxury. Established in 1891, this graceful estate and vineyard was initially the property of a Georgian nobleman, before transitioning to state ownership. Today, it has been transformed into a 19-room hotel, offering a unique blend of historical charm and modern amenities.

The estate extends over a 35-hectare vineyard. Complementing the vineyards is a 1.5-hectare park, an oasis of diverse trees and exotic plant species, adding to the estate’s serene and picturesque setting.

A highlight of the Vazisubani Estate is its modern restaurant. Here, Winetravelers can indulge in culinary delights while enjoying the estate’s own wines. The restaurant is designed with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, which not only bathe the space in natural light but also open up to reveal a swimming pool and breathtaking panoramic views, offering a dining experience that beautifully marries the estate’s historic legacy with contemporary luxury.

What a wonderful and comprehensive guide to North Georgia’s wine tours! As a wine enthusiast who loves exploring new regions and tastes, I’ve found your post incredibly helpful and informative. The details you’ve provided, from the wineries’ history to their specialities, add a personal touch that makes the prospect of these tours all the more enticing.

Hello, Tony! The wineries of North GA get more popular by the day, and visiting a few on a GA wine tour is a great way to see them safely with your friends. Enjoy!

This is a very informative article, like an all-you-need-to-know guide about tour choices. I have heard that Georgia is one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. My wife and I love to travel, but she especially loves the countryside views. I know Georgia is definitely full of natural views where the grapes are grown. What is your suggestion for a getaway that is full of great viewpoints? We love to take pictures with nature and enjoy the countryside life.

Hello! Believe it or not, most of these areas of North Georgia (USA) are relatively newer producers of wine. Many of the wineries are less than ten years old, and almost all are less than 20 years old. There are plenty of wines with an “old world” taste, though, so it’s easy to understand how the area’s wine history might seem longer than it is!

There are lots of fantastic wineries in North GA, which makes it hard to choose a favorite getaway, but easy to find a bunch of great options! For viewpoints of long-range mountain views, consider visiting any of these destinations on a North Georgia Wine Tour: Terra Incognita, Kaya, Wolf Mountain, Living Water Winery, Ott Farms Winery, Creekstone Winery, Crane Creek Winery, and Fainting Goat. 

Alright, alright, alright! I stumbled upon this article about wine tours in North Georgia, and I gotta say, I’m impressed. I never knew that Georgia was producing wines, let alone that they have a whole tour dedicated to it.

First things first, let’s talk about the article itself. Kudos to the author for providing such a detailed guide to wine tours in North Georgia. From the various vineyards and wineries to the different types of tours available, this guide has got it all. It’s clear that the author has done their research and is passionate about wine tours in North Georgia.

As someone who’s never been on a wine tour before, this article really opened my eyes to what I’m missing out on. I mean, who wouldn’t want to spend a day (or two) drinking delicious wine while taking in the stunning scenery of the North Georgia mountains? Sign me up!

But all joking aside, I really do appreciate the author taking the time to write this article. They’ve provided a valuable resource for anyone looking to plan a wine tour in North Georgia. And for those of you who have been on a wine tour before, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the experience. Was it worth it? What was your favorite part?

Overall, I’m really impressed with this article and the information provided. It’s clear that the author has a love for wine and for North Georgia, and they’ve done a great job of sharing that love with their readers. So, thank you to the author for this informative and enjoyable read. I’m definitely adding a wine tour in North Georgia to my bucket list!

Vineyards have already fascinated me since I was asked to work on a project on wine when I was child. Research on vineyards led me to know such beautiful vineyards in Georgia. And your article comes to me at the right time to know about the vineyard tour further.

A private tour of Ellijay Wineries including wind tasting is so much fun I could imagine. 

I am definitely going to make it this time!

Thanks for sharing such a comprehensive information.

My partner and I spent the day with A Grape View Tours and it was a truly magical experience. Our guide was just an all-around great person to spend time with and really knew the area inside and out. The van was clean and comfortable, the scenery was out of this world, and every destination was a treasure. One of our stops was Roo winery (named after a ROOster :D), which I understand had recently opened and was beautiful inside and out. We also stopped at a dairy farm for ice cream and a roadside farmers market. One of my favorite stops was a gentle hike to a waterfall - stunning!! This was not our first wine tour but I have to say it was one of the nicest. It just felt so personal, like we were visiting an old friend who was treating us to all the local flavors and colors. Highly recommended!

Katlin K., GA

We had an absolute blast celebrating my sister this weekend! Huge thank you to @a_grape_view_tours 🎉 thank you for helping make her bachelorette such an amazing and special time! I cannot recommend them enough! Patrick and Cliff are the absolute best! Please, if you are interested in booking a wine tour they are hands down the best around. They have so many options for different wineries and could not have been more accommodating

If you are seeking a fabulous wine tour, look no further - I wish we could give A Grape View ten stars! Cliff & Patrick were so wonderful. Our group of five really enjoyed seeing the best of Ellijay on this tour.

Georgia Wine Tours

Qvevri – ancient wine, modern twist.

Our Georgia wine tours focus on many of the great wineries near the Kakheti wine region towns of Telavi, Kvareli, and Signagi and we highly recommend staying one, two or three nights away from Tbilisi giving you quality time to relax and taste.

• Visit wineries that employ traditional Qvevri and modern methods.
• Experience unique Qvevri wine and learn all about it
• Tour with owners and winemakers
• Taste many wines that will be new to you
• Stay at lovely vineyard and winery hotels
• Georgian cuisine is superb – Plenty of chances to enjoy it
• Visits to historic, beautiful churches and monuments

Remember: Everything we do is private and customizable – just let us know if there is something you wish to add or remove from our Kakheti wine tours.

So Many Wineries – Qvevri & Steel, Old & New.

There are so many options they are impossible to talk about at length here, but below we cover an outline example program for one or two nights away from Tbilisi just to show you what is possible:

Our Kakheti wine tours start by heading out of Tbilisi for around two hours or so until we reach the heart of Kakheti. Our first visit will be Shumi winery which is a well oiled, visitor-friendly setup and the perfect introduction to quality Qvevri wine. A tour of the factory will be made, followed by a tasting.

After our time at Shumi we will head further into the countryside for 30 minutes or so to visit the boutique Qvevri winery, Chubini . We will be having lunch here with the owners Tornike and Lika. This newly married couple is a delight to spend time with and they will proudly show you what they do, and we will try their wines during lunch relaxing in the garden.

You probably will not want to leave Chubini, but we have to as there is more to see and taste. We will drive 15 minutes more to the historic Chateau Eniseli winery which will also be our home for the night. This place is fascinating and exudes historical importance and Soviet influence. The story behind this winery is too long to recount here, suffice to say you will find it very interesting during a tour of this very unusual facility.

You will enjoy a tasting of Eniseli wines, brandy, and chacha and be free to relax for the evening in this very tranquil place.

Facebook album of several trips to Kakheti

Telavi & Signagi on our Georgia wine tours

For our two night Georgia wine tours we would have you stay in the Telavi area first night, then in Signagi for the second. Several wineries around Signagi will be added into the schedule according to your tastes, white, red, semi-sweet, Qvevri, oaked…the area has them all.

Before we get to Signagi for the night there is much to do, see and taste.

After breakfast, we will visit the spectacular Gremi Fortress and enjoy a quick look at the museum inside the structure. The video below should give you the idea, lovely place indeed.

After visiting Gremi we will head 15 minutes to the Shilda winery. This is a total contrast to what you have at Eniseli, this winery was built in 2015.

We will have a look at the production area where modern stainless steel is being used to produce great quality wine from Kakheti grapes. The company does also use Qvevri for some of its wines and we will taste both styles.

While we are here at Shilda we will learn about, and try, making traditional Georgian Shoti bread in the ubiquitous circular ovens, plus Georgian Khinkali dumplings and also Churchkhela sweets. This is a great hands-on experience and a lot of fun.

Leaving Shilda, we have a number of variations on Georgia wine tours en-route to Signagi if you are enjoying a two-night package. A one night package will mean we visit one more winery in Telavi before heading back to Tbilisi, this will one of many but a great option is Schuchmann Winery .

Schuchmann is also a great option for an overnight stay, this will all depend on the route you choose and your budget. In any case, we will visit the winery, enjoy a tasting and the superb views that the place affords.

If you have a three-day trip then we will head through some classic terroir such as Tsinandale and Mukuzani on our way to the winery which will also be our lunch spot today, Numisi Cellar and museum.

This is a very quirky place, and while the wine may be the standard of Shumi or Shilda, the experience is an interesting one. If the owner is around then we can meet him and hear, through the guide, a little about the place. We will enjoy a tour of the Qvevri cellar and the many museum pieces that are on show, then have a tasting during a lunch of traditional Georgian BBQ.

After this visit, you will be ready to head to your hotel, so we drive up the hill to the lovely town of Signagi, check you in and leave you free till after breakfast in the morning.

Keep going – Keep tasting!

The Pheasant´s Tears winery has a lovely tasting room in this quaint hill-top town, and we will have a tour and tasting here after giving you time to wander a little in the town after breakfast.

Click here for a great article on Georgian wine

We will then leave Signagi and drive 45 minutes or so to reach the small village of Badiauri. Here we will visit one of the traditional bakeries producing bread the way you have seen so far.

After the bakeries, we will head to the tiny rural village of Kakabeti to visit the fantastic Vellino boutique winery. The Qvevri wines here are superb quality and delicious. We will enjoy being educated on the local terroir by the young owner and then have a premium tasting.

After Vellino there may be one more winery visit in the Khashmi area before heading back to Tbilisi, but this will depend on how we are going for time.

Being a private tour it gives us the chance to adapt to local opportunities and for your guide to suggest a place en route. We will go with the flow (of wine)!

Why not extend your time and try our amazing Birthplace of Wine tour triangle, taking in some of the best wine regions of the Caucasus.

What an amazing road trip we had! The route from Salta to Mendoza is so interesting, not just for wine but all the landscapes and cultural experiences, its hard to find 6 days in a South American trip with so much other stuff to do but if you can then do it. The Phillips family - Oregon USA - December 2023

Thanks again for a spectacular day.  Great wine, unique wineries, insightful conversations and a definite memory maker. We were too tired to finish all the vino so we left 2 bottles from RE for you at the Doubletree check-in desk under your name. Until we meet again and with our warm regards The Brun / Hartzell group, Ohio USA - Jan 2022

We enjoyed a 3 day wine trip in the Colchagua region of Chile with Gary and Malka - just incredible! They took us to vineyards that we had never heard of; all of which were interesting and different in their own way. Gary and Malka are both super knowledgable, extremely passionate about wine and just really nice / professional people to spend time with. Steven & Meg, Aberdeen, UK - Sept 2021

What a great time we had in Georgia drinking Qvevri wine, we will be coming back and adding Armenia and maybe Turkey next time. Gary did a great job in the planning, he obviously knows his stuff! The Sanders Family, NY, USA - Jan 2020

12 Best Vineyards And Wineries In Georgia You Must Visit

August 24, 2022 //  by  Southern Trippers

Are you ready to indulge at some of the best wineries in Georgia? The Peach State is known for its use of the muscadine grape to produce wine. With a well-suited climate, the state has an easy time growing muscadines which, while traditionally used for making wines, sauces, and jams, are heavily used for wine in Georgia these days. When you visit The Peach State, you can find a great wine tasting in Georgia that is perfect for you as a traveler. Or, if you are really looking to get the most out of your time spent in wine country, you can take a tour of many of the best Georgia wine tastings.

One of the biggest tour companies is Pop The Cork Wine Tours. Tours leave from Atlanta, Cumming, and Gainesville areas and offer travelers from chauffeured transport, covered wine tasting fees, gourmet lunches, and more. So, which of these amazing wineries will you visit first?

How Many Wineries are there in Georgia?

There are fifty-seven licensed wineries in Georgia. This is nearly double the amount that there was ten years ago. Of course, Georgia can’t compete with the number of wineries in other states like California, which has more than 4,500 wineries! But, nonetheless, Georgia’s wineries are stunning and offer guests remarkable wine tastings. Georgia wine tours are available in abundance today, where you can explore some of the fifty-seven wineries for yourself while exploring The Peach State.

Where Is Georgia Wine Country?

You will find Georgia’s wine country about two hours north of Atlanta. The official wine country spreads through the northern area containing Helen, Sautee Nacoochee, Cleveland, Hiawassee, and Dahlonega. The soil here is amazing for vineyards. In fact, it is often compared to the soil found in Italian wine regions. America’s wine-growing grounds are unique due to the large diversity of grape species that can be grown there. So, where does Georgia wine country play into all of this? Georgia was one of the first states to take part in prohibition. Because of this, the modern wine industry really didn’t take root until the 1980s. Today, Georgia is the national leader in producing wine made from the Muscadine grape.

Best Wineries In Georgia

Crane creek vineyards.

Among the best vineyards in Georgia is the Crane Creek Vineyards in Young Harris. This vineyard likes to express the uniqueness of the area in which they are located through the unique grapes that they make wines from. They have more than twenty acres of vines planted for a variety of grapes, including Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Albarino, and other European varieties. There are also many French-American hybrids and modern hybrids used to grow their fantastic wines. Crane Creek has the goal of growing the finest wines in the region in the most sustainable way possible. While the vineyards are less than two hours away from Atlanta, you will fill like you are a world away in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Sitting high up in the mountains in the shadow of Brasstown Bald, the state’s highest peak, Crane Creek has an incredible tasting room called the Stone House Tasting Room. Walking distance from the Stone House Tasting Room is The Farmhouse Market. This boutique shop offers a selection of gifts and gourmet foods and has a small bar serving glasses of wine and tasting flights. Outside there are lower decks where you can sit and enjoy your wine. They also allow guests to create their own custom gift baskets to purchase, which is just one part of what makes it one of the best wineries in Georgia.

Painted Horse Winery and Vineyard

If you are looking for wineries near Atlanta, the Painted Horse Winery and Vineyard is an incredible North Georgia Winery in Milton, GA, that is roughly 30-40 minutes from Atlanta. The winery has received many accolades, mentions, and spotlights. Most recently, it has received the Best of Atlanta awarded in Atlanta Magazine and the Best of North Atlanta by the Appen Media Group. One of the best things about the Painted Horse and what makes it one of the best wineries in Georgia is that they are more than just a winery and vineyard. They also have a farm and an Alpharetta location. On the farm, you can take part in horseback riding lessons, join a summer camp, visit the farm animals, host your birthday party there, and more. For parents, you may be interested in knowing that the farm holds Tea Parties in the Forest, where you can enjoy tea, bite-sized sandwiches, and desserts in an enchanted forest complete with string lights and party hats. The Painted Horse Winery Tasting Room and Wine Bar in Alpharetta is the place to be for live music and enjoying an afternoon or evening. There you can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere and the full gamut of wine offerings. On Fridays, the Tasting Room and Wine Bar hosts a pizza night. You can choose your pizza and a time, then enjoy a bottle of Pedro or Poppy wine with your pizza that serves two.

Butterducks Winery

For those looking for wineries near Savannah, check out the Butterducks Winery in Guyton, GA. This winery is on a pretty patch of green grass where you can find space to relax outside on the patio or by the pond while you enjoy a wine tasting. The small pond has been home to ducks for the past decade. Today, the ducks are a part of what Butterducks… well, Butterducks. While you are visiting, you are welcome to go into the tank room with the winemaker to see how the wine is made, all the way from the crush of the grape to bottling and labeling each wine. In the gift shop, you can find white, red, semi-sweet, sweet, super sweet, and dry dinner wine selections. Of course, you can find other goodies as well, like wine glasses, chillers, and other items that make great souvenirs and gifts. Butterducks is one of the many amazing wineries in Georgia. If you are looking for a calm, quiet, place to have a relaxing wine tasting, you will enjoy the laid-back and unpretentious vibe at Butterducks Winery. The Tasting Room is open for guests on the weekends.

Chateau Elan Winery and Resort

When it comes to North Georgia wineries, Chateau Elan Georgia is a simply stunning choice. The winery is a landmark destination in the picturesque rolling foothills of The Peach State. Covering 3,500 acres of wooded areas and rolling hills, this resort and winery is a favorite destination for weekend getaways in Georgia . From the humble beginning of the winery in 1981, it has grown to offer more than thirty wines that are all crafted under a well-accomplished Italian winemaker named Simone Bergese. If you choose to stay at the luxurious resort on-site, the legendary guest rooms, private villas, and lavish spa suites are sure to create a lasting memory of your time spent in The Peach State. What puts Chateau Elan on the list of greatest wineries in Georgia? The winery and rooms are impeccable, but what really makes it stand apart from others are the restaurants on site. You will find a French-inspired showpiece, an old-world speakeasy, and a Southern-influenced chophouse, all at Chateau Elan. There are restaurants and bars on-site that offer a culinary tour around the globe for visitors.

Yonah Mountain Vineyards

Located in beautiful Cleveland, Yonah Mountain Vineyards is one of the best wineries in Georgia. A wine tasting with mountain-side views is something that you will want to see for yourself. The two-hundred-acre winery is family owned and sits on the southeastern base of Yonah Mountain. The world-class wines are something every traveler in Georgia should try for themselves. The rolling hills and sandy soil make for an ideal setting for planting Petit Verdot, Malbec, Chardonnay, Petit Manseng, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and more. Yonah Mountain Vineyards started in 2005 and has grown in popularity ever since. You can take part in Reserve Wine Testing on the second Sunday of every month to taste the locally made wines, as well as wines from around the world.

Accent Cellars

You may find yourself looking for a winery in Dahlonega. If so, don’t overlook Accent Cellars. There are many Dahlonega wineries, but this is one of the very best.
