During your wine tour in Georgia, you will get more detailed info about the local wines, however, we happily provide a brief introduction about the wines of Georgia.

Traditional wine is made in Qvevri - a clay amphora, buried underground. The Qvevri wine is always dry, has more tannins, and grape juice usually is fermented with the skin and stems.

European wines, as they call non-Qvevri wines in Georgia, can be fermented without skin contact and can be semi-sweet or semi-dry.

Red, white, sparkling, and icewine are common for Georgian viticulture.
