Wine tasting We had a good time at Chona's Marani, but it was different than expected. The person who should do the tour with us and especially speaks English was not there and we have spoken with him only briefly on the phone. This was of course very unfortunate... Instead, his parents have taken over, who were very cordial and have given a lot of effort, but only knew a little English. This made it difficult to ask questions. It was also not really a tour. The parents showed us the room with the Qveri and then we went to their house…

Excellent Personalized Tasting We arrived in Telavi before we could check in to our hotel so we dropped the car off, booked a tasting for only a few hours later, and just showed up at the winery. Simon showed us around the qvevri, the still for chacha, and the bottling room. We had a great tasting with plenty of the amber and red wine, chacha, and homemade sunflower oil with bread. The wines were great. Highly recommend this visit for the wines and how easily bookable it is here.

Great experience We both enjoyed our tour guide, he explained everything and answered all of our questions. Then explained all the different types of wines, cha cha and the brandy they also make at the winery. Our tour guide also opened a new bottle of brandy to give us a taste even though it was not included in our tour. We love our tour and the different wines that we will definitely come back again with our friends and family next time.
